I didn't see a group for WLS in your 50's. Apparently not many people over 50 have WLS or maybe they just don't use computers. I'm 52 my husband is 53 and we are both scheduled in August.

I know there is one.  People in my wls support group frequent it. 

Found it!  Here's the link:

A lot of older people have wls in their 50's. I have a friend who had it when she was 75. Doctor had to approve it first, but it went through and she did great. Had to lose the weight to get a hip replaced. She lost the weight, got a new hip and was dancing on her 50th reunion with her husband. She's been dancing and going like crazy ever since. Good luck to both of you - it's so cool when you can do it together.
