Question:
Have any females over age 60 had the WLS?

I am 67 years old and scheduled for surgery in 6 weeks. Anyone over 60 that has had WLS, please email me with your experience. [email protected]    — Mary U. (posted on November 25, 2003)

I applaud you in taking the WLS plunge! There are senior citizens who won't be able to have the surgery for one reason or another, so much success to you. Remember due to age the skin will probably sag more due to loss of elasticity, but do your exercises, take your supplements, and keep your doctor posted on any problems/questions that you may have. Keep us posted on your progress.
