I am 5'1" and was 240, I'm 198 now and have lost it from my legs and face/neck. I really want my belly to go because that's where I am the heaviest

Bubles, belly is from stress sometimes. You are doing great though! Increase water and destress a bit. Im thinking about light yoga post op

Hello fellow shorties! I am 5'0" and my start weight was 228. I was round all over but I was always a little more bottom heavy. Today I weigh 121. I want to lose 11 more. My sleeve was done on 03/01/12. I lost up top before I started losing on the bottom half. I think everyone loses differently.

Lol! Nope! I had a couple people I admired when I was working toward goal. I just charged ahead, took advantage of not being hungry, recognized head hunger for what it is, and starved the fat off. I have pics in my mobile upload albums on Facebook. I am listed as Crystal Woods. Good Luck!

Crystal I want to be like you too
