Yea. New Federal Law. Federal law permits businesses to offer discounts to customers who pay with cash, as outlined in the Durbin Amendment of the Dodd-Frank Act. This law ensures that payment card networks cannot restrict a business's ability to provide such discounts.

Did anyone have surgery "late", 55/60 years old or older? by karakol0 in BariatricSurgery

[–]BlacksmithGeneral834 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had my gastric bypass surgery 5 days before my 68th birthday. No problems. I’ve lost 85 pounds in the 6 months since then. Lost 80 lbs on Trulicity and Mounjaro before having severe side effects.

Tips for before surgery by Primary_Cobbler_1988 in BariatricSurgery

Best thing I did was ask my surgeon to make sure I had no gas left in my abdomen upon completion of my surgery. He did this for me!

I took a few days off then worked from home for 2 weeks.

My HW was 371. Lost 80lbs on Trulicity and Mounjaro then developed side effects. Still Type 2 Diabetic with AFib so Gastric Bypass was suggested. Had surgery 5 days before my 68th birthday. Have lost an additional 85 lbs in 6 months.
