What is your height?



Recommended Posts

i'm 5'1.5 . My goal weight is 125. I'm probably going to get a boob job around 135-140 and then drop down to 120 to get the Tummy Tuck and see how i feel at that point.

mommy2boys,

I will need a FTT and maybe some Lipo around my breasts as well as breast augmentation once I drop down to 140lbs. Years of bad eating behavior got me here. I also know that years of working out will not get rid of this flabby skin hanging around my abdomen. There's no way thousands of crunches will rid of it. I'm down for P.S. no doubt!

The sad thing is, lately I've been feeling like a champ about my weight loss. I've also been reading the Pregnancy Threads and I look at my little girl alot, wishing I had 1 more kid. I'm torn really.

I'm 6' foot even. I am lucky I am big framed!! When I had to tell my mom (she did sleep study) how heavy I was - 426 she was floored she thought 350 or so but I have always been told I carry my weight well. I was banded 6-20-05 I have lost 75 pounds in a year - I think I will be happy at 220 - 230 but dr says he would like 180 - 190 so we will see. I just want to be under 300 and then worry about the rest.

I am 5'6" and my goal is 138. I'm thinking about adjusting that upwards. I don't think I can get that low again without looking "sick".

My husband is 5' even and weighs 170. Yep, we look like an "odd couple" but it doesn't bother either of us. I know him from the inside and to me he is 10 ft tall!

I am 5"10 and my goal weight is 180 pounds, hopefully a size 12.

Most of my friends and family tell me my face won't be able to take anything under 180 but I think I'm doing OK. I will listen and take there advice since I've come from 283lbs.

I'm starting to think maintenance is going to hard.

I'm 5'9" and my goal is just to be under 200. I was 140 in college (many years ago!!) but that was actually too thin. My dream would be 175, but I'll b e happy to make it to 199.

I would love to get down to 110 but would be thrilled with 115.:banana I think I'll be happy when I get to 120-125 even.:)

I'm 5'4" and I'm hoping to get down to 140. I'm not sure what is the "ideal" weight for my height, but 140 sounds good.

I am 5' 5 1/2" and 184. Goal from doc is 138 - 145 but at 184 I am a size 12 so I think 138 is too low. I would be happy at 155. Good luck to everyone!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
