Calling all my tall girls....what weight did you start in your WL journey/end up at?

Oh yea and I had my RNY was 10/12/12

I'm 5'9 1/2" and started at 304. I'm over three years out and down to 140. I work hard to stay there by really  watching what I eat and I exercise a lot because I like to do it. My goal weight was 160.

Thank you everyone for responding!! It is so great to see everyone's successes and know that I can follow in your footsteps!

 

I'm just a couple days away from my one year. I am 5'9" and started out at 325. I weigh 165 now and wear a size 10 and a large or medium shirt. I started in a tight size 24 and 4 x shirt. My goal was to wear a 16 and I said I'd be in heaven if I hit a 14! I had no clue that insult actually wear a 10. I still have a hard time believing it. I'm still tossing around losing another 10 pounds just to see what I look like. Haven't made up my mind yet though.

I'm 5'9" staring weight 278 size 24 pant/3X shirt. RNY July 27,2012. Now weigh 157 size 8 pant/med shirt. Could wear small shirt but I still like those a little baggy!

I WAS 5'9 (shrunk an inch with the weight loss). Surgery day weight was 327, lowest weight was 172, maintaining at 189-195

I am 5'11" and my highest weight was 389. I lost 40 on the pre op diet so had my surgery at 350. I got down to 205 in the first year and maintained for almost a year after that. I found out I had thyroid cancer and had some issues with that so I gained 40 and am now working to lose that again. The doctor had my goal weight set at 260- he said not to get my hopes up because I have a larger frame that I would possibly never make it under 200. I found that when I was 205 I felt perfect and did not want to be any thinner. Being the shape I am I thought I would be funny looking and not look healthy at all at 160-180-where the BMI chart says I should be. I just want to be 199 for a day to show my surgeon that NOBODY doubts me! :P

i was thinking i was tall at 5'8, guess not lol. On surgery morning i was 268 on 8/8/12 and today i weigh 186 on the dot, slow and steady for me and i just had my 1st stall the past couple of weeks and it lasted for 2 1/2 weeks then i lost 2.2 this weekend woo hoo thank goodness that is over for now.
