Seeking Buddies 5'2" & Under



Recommended Posts

I always thought I was 5'3. I was bummed when they told me I was 5'2" because that meant I had to lose 5 more pounds to get to goal LOL

I am 5'1" and starting liquid diet today. Surgery is July 5th.

HW: 220

CW: 206

GW: 120-125

I am busty and have a large bottom - not that I want to keep the booty but always he a flat stomach with it before having kids....lol bust has not changed in cup size with weight loss only band size so hoping I won't lose too much chest... Lol!!

Getting nervous about doing liquid diet "voluntarily" for a whole week! I mean there's nothing but my will power and risk of surgery cancellation stopping me from eating food so I'm pretty nervous about my will power strength.

@@AmberMc03 YOU WILL DO GREAT! I'm day 5 and it's not too bad. You can have sf Popsicles and yogurt! I bought strawberry Slimfast shake too. I'm also 5'1" and went in at 199.5. My goal is 115! I'm very busty as I have implants and now all this extra weight over them was starting to give me back problems. Therefore, I knew I needed to do something. I am hoping that this was the answer. Looking forward to being much thinner by my birthday on September 24. I will be 43 years old.

@@dolcegirl that would be great! I went into surgery at 214 lbs I was one of the lucky ones that didn't had to do any diet before surgery... I don't know my weight right now since I haven't weigh my self, I'm waiting on my first Dr's appt. Next Thursday July 7th...I been feeling good (thank god) and hope and praying to God that every thing continues the same...hoping that my sleeve helps me get to my goal of 140 since the band didn't get me near that...

@@KristenLe thank you for your comment! I just feel like I shouldn't have a really low weight goal, I mean if I do that would be great but I would be happy if I get to 140...

I'm the same way. I'd rather not get down to 120- I think that's too low for me.

      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...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
