Morning Walk2 - I'm 76 and live in the UK. I've had my implant removed and am hopeful that I'll have a new one sometime next year. In the meantime I have been 10 months with limited mobility. My right thigh where it was removed as expanded sideways and I'm finding it hard to lose weight even though I've limited myself to 800-1000 calories a day. Thankfully my understanding consultant hasn't mentioned losing weight but it needs to happen. Hopefully someone can advise us both. Have you had you op or are you waiting? Good luck either way.
