making me feel old

 WELL IM 48  AND I HAD RNY 11-26-07  SO FAR FEELING GOOD. DOWN 47 !!  WISH I WOULD HAVE DONE IT SOONER!! WISH YOU ALL THE BEST OF LUCK

I hear you Kim...I'm 48;had my RNY on 12/6/07 and pre-op and post op I'm down 54 lbs(about;I won't get on scale this week due to stall and trying to wean myself from BAD SCALE) My big saying has been..."What took me so long...should have done this YEARS ago!!!!!"

I also wish that I had done this years ago but then I remind myself I can only look forward; I can't change the past.  So, on the wall over my desk I have hung the quote  "Regret for wasted time is more wasted time."   This reminds me to be grateful that I was fortunate enough to have had the surgery, that it went well and that I feel better than I have in more than 10 years.  The way I see it, I'm just getting younger and younger each year -- well, at least I feel younger and that's what counts, right?  ;-)  Laurie

You did it when you were ready.
