There are quite a few sleevers who were sleeved between 60 and 70 on here. I know they will chime in. Welcome Amay!

Glad to meet you I wasn’t sure that I wasn’t to old for the gastric sleeve surgery but I have been reassured over and over I’m not I am diabetic and have high blood pressure but have no other health issues I’m nervous we’re you nervous and how are you feeling.

Hi I was 67 when I had the surgery I am now 68 years old. At this point I am four months postop and want you to know my surgery went perfectly I had no pain or issues after the surgery at all. Currently I am doing very well and the only thing that I regret is not having done this sooner I will tell you at times this is not an easy process but I am very glad that I did it I think perhaps the most important thing about it is to always approach it with a “ can do “ Attitude. One month after surgery my family physician took me off of met Forman for type two diabetes and my blood pressure medication I also no longer use a CPAP machine. At this time I am healthier and happier than I have been in a very long time
