Has Anyone Else Started At My Weight?

I'm 5'6" and I started my journey weighing 246 pounds. I lost 29 pounds on my pre op diet. Today, a little more then 6 months post op I weight 143 pounds. I went from wearing a size 20 pants to a size 7 or 9. My shirts were 2 XL and now i'm either a M or L. And I can now shop at Victoria secrets!!! I have pix post on my homepage you can check out. Good luck!!!!

I started at 240. I am 5'5". Now range between 122 and 125. Some 2s are too big and often have to resort to a 0 (very hard to find). 

I am 5' 4" and started a little higher than you at 245 (I lost 40 of that before surgery) and had surgery at the age of 51. I am now 55 and weigh 107.

I love this picture of you! You look so happy!

Thanks Dee 

I am 9 months out. At my heaviest I was 287. I was 252 starting opti and 230 on surgery. I am 5 4 and now 157.

 

Hey SamanthaJo,  At age 51 I am 5'3" and started at 263 highest weight (HW).  On surgery day I weighed in at 227...I am now almost 1 month out and I weighed yesterday at 209.  I am down from a 22/24 to an 18 in pants and they are a bit baggy...

I think I am in love with myself again...

I am close to six months out and am 5'6". I started at 258.5,was 253 at surgery and am 166 now.

I am 5'4". My highest weight was 264. The day of surgery I was 255 and this morning I was 204. (Just over 2 months out). I have gone from a tight 24 down to a loose 18, and I can wear some 16's. In such a short time, my life has changed dramatically!

Hello...............I recently had weight loss surgery on Feb 23, 2013, My starting weight was 215 lbs and i am 5 ft 2 inches with shoes on. at my 1 week post-op visit I weighed in at 199 lbs. That was 16 lbs in 10 days. It was such a great feeling... 

Have a great day!
