iambeccajane got a reaction from hats123 in Started at 29 BMI
Hi! I am @ 216 right now with a BMI of 35.. size 12. I'm a newbie focused on going forward for Feb. Just lost 20lbs and have been a yo yo dieter as well my entire life. My family and friend s are not being supportive as they see I'm in weight loss mode... The yo yo hasn't changed yet uhhh.. which is wonderful but we are great at losing weight!!!
Anyway I just wanted to say hello and cheer you on for staying strong and focused.. my goal is 145-160. My height is 5'6.

I was a bmi of 33 and had surgery on 1/5/16. SW was 212 and CW is 145. After losing 14 lbs in the 1st two weeks, I steadily lost 2 lbs a week for the 1st 6 months. I have been 1-2 lbs a week for the last 2 months. I think those of us with low bmi do better with sagging skin issues and general bounce back of skin and tissue. My end goal is 135, which I hope to hit in the next month or 2. Overall, I am absolutely thrilled with my VSG results. My only complaint is heartburn issues, but even that is getting better with time.
It's been a great summer to wear a bikini, yoga pants and feel great about my body again. That says a lot for a girl who will be 47 in 2 weeks!!

I got down to 160 within 30 days , and then a pound every week, I got down to 142-146 in 6 months from 179 surgery date, and am struggling to lose the last 5-10 lb to 135 but it's just a number, and I know I look pretty decent, no lose skin issues , I want to start back in weights again next month and focus on strength training
Hair loss - yes it started at about 4 months out to about 9 months, I layered the hell out of my hair and have cut a lot off as it comes back , I did the Biotin , and 80 grams Protein for most of this time.
By the way I just turned 40, and have an athletic build and previously worked out a lot so when my nut said 135 , she also said depending on my muscle tone I could end up at 140.
Feel free to pm if anyone wants information and doesn't want to post
