I am 5'... That's all. No inches. I am 5 months post op and I have lost 70 pounds. So glad I decided to have the surgery. I can actually see a 100 pound weight loss as a possibility.

Hi everyone, I am 5'2 and 10 weeks post op. I have lost 47 lbs total and currently struggling to stay on track with the Christmas holidays. food is every where and Im on regular food now, which makes it really hard because I have no restrictions like I did in the liquid stage. I would love a buddy to help me stay on track. BTW what is RNY stand for? Good luck to those getting sleeved in the near future.

I had a really hard time with all the food as well and I haven't had surgery yet! I am in the pre-op stages and boy it was really HARD! RNY stands for Roux En Y or gastric bypass (I think!)

how are you doing htracewell? The first 5 days or so are the hardest. Hopefully you will be feeling great soon.

Newbie here just starting my journey. Would love some 5".2 buddies.

Are you in the research phase or have you had surgery already? I am scheduled for surgery on January 19th. Starting to have bizarre dreams about it! I am scared/nervous the closer it gets but am also eager to have this tool to help me lose the weight I have been struggling with for so long.

I am in Washington State.

kcsmicah and all, I'm glad I stumbled onto this forum. I'm 5'1. My surgery is also Jan 20, and I just found out about the surgery date yesterday. I'm not starting the pre-op diet until tomorrow, so I'll be on it for less than 2 weeks...why is a long story. :) I have an autoimmune disease that makes it very difficult to lose weight. I'm new to Bariatricpal and to this whole WLS process. I hope the latter works. I need to lose 70 lbs.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
