I am 5'1 and have lost 40 pounds pre-op. All the inches are off my hips. However, I am top heavy, not bottom heavy. My BMI is 34. ANy short people have success with losing weight all over? WIth pics? Im a little impatient I guess.

I am 5'1 and my highest weight was 200. During my pre op diet of two weeks i only lost like 7 lb .weight of surgery was 193 and im currently 6 weeks post op. My current weight is 172. Down 28lb. I feel like im loosing slow but its ok cuz it will help with lose skin.

I need to join in here... Not quite a success yet- but I'm getting there! I'm 4'11. My start weight was 248- I'm at 200 this morning. Surgery was 11/13. I've lost 7 inches off of my waist and 8 inches off of my hips along with inches off of my chest (yet I've managed to go up a cup size. AGH!). I'm happy that it seems to of come off fairly evenly.
