"older" VSG'rs???
I was 52 when I had mine! I feel 20 years younger now! I didnt feel like I needed it when I was younger..thought I could do it on my own...now, a little help never hurts!
Best thing I ever did! wish I had done it sooner! I want to live out my life thinner and enjoy it! I dont want to be the "fat lady" in the hospital bed when older age brings health issues, or have a special size coffin made when I pass. The fear of paramedics not being able to lift me, or getting out of a fire because I am too fat and slow.. all of this helped me make my decision. This 50 is definitely not your grandma's 50s! life is fun now with a sleeve!

I am about 17 months out and I will turn 60 on the 16th. I feel like I turned the clock back. I feel like i am turning 40! Before surgery I felt about 80 years old and close to death! Yes, encourage her to improve her health, energy levels, mobility and self-confidence!
