I'm 5'9.5. Surgery weight was 375, current weight 3 months after surgery is 287.9. My goal weight is 175 which would mean a 200 pound loss, wish me luck!!

Wow everyone is doing fantastic! It's nice to search out similar heights because that usually means we have similar goal weights. I'd say anywhere btwn 147-165? Is that safe to say? Good luck with all of your journeys! Any tips or tricks to break those stalls or anything else to share please do. These posts made my day;)

I'm 5'7" (although my doctor says I've shrunk to 5'6 1/2"!).

High weight was 248.

Surgery date was 3/19 and I was 228, lost 20 in two weeks of pre-op.

Currently sitting at 214 so I have only lost 14 in the 3+ weeks since surgery. :(

I would love to be at 150-160 at the end of everything. Anything lower than that and I feel like I would look tooooo skinny. However I don't remember what I look like at that weight so I might change my mind when I get there!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
