So I'm talking to another person and she had the sleeve a year ago and has lost 188lbs.....Her starting weight was 399.....She was telling me how she is in a size 18 or 16.

What's crazy is that I'm 350 now and I'm in a size 22/24. I know we are all made differently, but it just got me thinking about sizes and weightloss  for my upcoming surgery July 3rd.

Wow, 350 pounds and a size 22/24?  I wear that size and weigh 250 pounds (in tops).

I am 5'10".

It really is because I'm 375 in a 28 it's snug and a 30 would be much more comfy but I do own all 28's and I'm 5'5

Question about your height: What does "5'5 and 12" mean?

VSG 10/26/12 • HEIGHT 5'4"
GW = 140 lbs met Month 9
CW = 133
lbs
Loss per Month: 8 >  9 > 7 > SURGERY  > 15 > 10 > 10 > 10 > 7 > 5 > 6
  > 6 > 5 > 5 > 0

    

It works if you work it; it sorta works if you sorta work it; and it doesn't work if you don't work it.

I'm 5'4". Pre-op I was 235 and in 22/24. My mom sent me some 24's that were tight. That was the final straw for me..

Now 8 months post-op, I'm 145 and in size 8.
