Question:
Anyone 5'4

I am now nine months out and down about 150 pounds, just curious to see how others my height are doing. I feel that my weight loss is so slow right now and feel like it may be stopping. I still have like 40 to go and hope I get there!    — Patricia F. (posted on July 24, 2003)

I am 5'3" and I will hit my 6 month mark on August 12th and so far I have lost 91. I started at 287. The past month I have really slowed down plus I am starting to have my hair fall out now also. I forget how much I had lost at 11 weeks but you are welcome to check my stats :) Isn't it great to finally have REAL hope??? I love it!!!

I am also 5'4" and started out at 241. I'll be 6 months out on Monday the 28th and I've lost 60 lbs. I lost 12 before surgery for a total of 72. I'm just now started to really exercise though so we'll see if it helps any!!

I went to your profile page to see what your starting weight was but there is'nt much info there. I am 5'3 & 1/2. And I weighed 319. I lost alot of weight one month pre op so my officlal weight was 305 but I count my loss from the highest weight! At six months I lost 108 lbs. At one year I lost 137 lbs. At 18 months lost 150.75 lbs. At 2 years I lost 155 (which meant I got down to 164 lbs). My weight at anyone time ranges usually from 162-164. But will go up to 169 if I miss my fluid pills a couple days. I did manage to get down to 158.75 for a day... but that was a fluke. I'm still in the over weight BMI range. Seems I'm still doomed to be over weight. :(
