I'm 46, and 5' 11" tall. My starting weight was 330, and I'm at 266 this morning. My surgeon didn't really give me a "goal" weight....but MY goal is 180-185. I know from experience that I look anorexic at 160... No desire to go there. 180-185 will look great with my frame.

My surgery date was july 16th .. My goal is 110-115 im only 4'11.. My start weight was 215 , now im 160... Im 30 .. I was size 20 now size 12 and sometimes 10..

My surgery weight was 292 I'm at 201 now. I am 5'5 and my lean muscle mass is already on the high average end and body fat is much lower than the last time I was at 201 so I'm thinking I'm going to look damn good and solid at 150. I want to be an athletic frame so I think that will be a good number. Your BMI doesn't tell the whole story all of the time!

I'm almost 6ft, I'm just shy of 320 lbs and I'm 33. My personal goal is to get to around 170 which gets me to a normal BMI. My doc said that he thinks i will be good at 180-ish. I carry a lot of muscle on my frame. Casein point, I went with my mother and her friend to gather firewood for a bonfire we were having at tht friends house. I went to pick up a log and started dragging it....that friend was on it and i moved it jut fine. She thought it was hilarious that I picked the log and her up at the same time and thought nothing of it. Lol.

I think an athletic frame is gorgeous and sexy....therefore I will have one someday.

I'm 5'9" and my goal weight is 160 at least, maybe 150. I remember that weight and it has been a long time since I've seen it:). I was size 10 to 12, but not that concerned with size as long as I never have to go to the plus section again!

My surgery was March 20, 2012. I'm 5'6 1/2 and highest weight was 396. I'm now 298 (yay!!!) My surgeons goal for me is 233 (say what) my goal for myself is 175. I picked this number b/c I'm solid and carry my weight as such. Most people couldn't believe I weighed 400 pounds when I did cause I carried it pretty well. I do not want to be skinny, I want to hold on to the curves in my figure ;0)

I am at 183 I am 5' 3 I am wearing a 12/10 thinking maybe 145 I am 55yrs old and thankfully the surgrey has not aged me but according to everyone has made me look younger. I did not look my age before I thank my family genes but I do not want to push the envelope and get too thin

I'm 5'2 and 39 yrs old. My staring weight was 290, my goal is 130-140 or about a size 8. I'm puerto rican and pretty curvy which I want to keep ( so does my husband!) so I dont want to get too skinny. Mainly I just want to be healthy :-) ohh and my mantra is to be fabulous at 40!!!

I'm 34 years old, and 5-09. My goal weight ( and my surgeons) is 160lbs.

I was sleeved on 06/12/2012. Starting weight was 276, weighed in this morning at 231

My my current pre op weight is 220 and goal is 135-140 I am 5'2" and 32 yrs old. I am curvy naturally and muscular I am mixed (black and yellow) and I want to keep some booty so I don't want to go too low lol.

I'm 4'11'' 40 years old and my healthy BMI range is 99-124. My surgeon considers you a success when you lose 65% of your excess weight which would have put me in the 150's. My personal goal for now is 123.8 to be in the normal BMI range - 1 more lb! Then my goal is that in clothes LOL I am getting ready to set a body fat % goal too - having a DEXA scan Monday to find out where I am. I am in sizes 6-10 depending on the clothing quality. Ultimately I think weight wise I would like to be around 115. We'll see!

I'm 29yrs old .. 5'7 1/7 my pre op weight is 280 my goal weight is to be 150 but my husband think I should be 180 my weight before having kids .. He prefer me thick as he don't care for skinny women so I guess I just wait to I get sleeve and go by how I look and feel to decide my goal

Im 5'4 also. I've been a fat girl for most of my life sobmy goal weight is not even close to 125, even though the medical world would like for me to be something close to that. Currently i weigh 264. My goal weight is 170-180. I still want to have some meat on my bones

I'm 5'2" and currently weigh 175.5. Start weight with band 215, start weight with sleeve 191. Goal is 125. Also, I'm 62 years old and have been fighting this battle since I was a teenager....

I'm 5'11". Highest weight was 357 in early march. 323 when i started my 2 week pre op diet. 299 day of surgery 7/30. 12 days post op i'm at 278. I would like to be around 200. The normal charts say i should be 175 but i just dont think that is right for me. I have always carried alot of muscle. But you never know i'll cross that bridge when i get there.
