I wanted to start a forum for members who are pre or post op and are 5'2" and under. I am 4'9" and post-op. In 4 months, I have lost over 50 lbs and would like to connect with others of my body type so we can compare stories and support each other.

Hi, I am 5'2" and had the Sleeve surgery almost a week ago on Dec. 14. I have lost 8 lbs so far and am excited to be on this journey!

Got my sleeve on the 22nd in not 4 days post op I hate the liquid diet stage can't wait till these two weeks pass it felt like such a short time and my surgery was here but now it feels like the days are dragging hope the speed past

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!)

Hi there! I am 5'2 and had surgery yesterday

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

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.

I feel amazing! Lots of energy and getting all my liquid in. Today I start full liquid so I can have soups and stuff. Only had head hunger twice! So happy! Any questions let me know!!

I'm Randi 5"2. Had the sleeve the 18th Dec..need an exercise buddy

Hey Randi!

I would love to be your work out partner

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.

4"11 3/4. Lol.. 2 days post op..ill keep you posted...HW 332 Sw 2721/2
