I notice that must sleeves are in the high 200's but is there anyone who started higher. My weight day off was 362 give or take a pound....my doctor told me the most common procedure for my weight was the bypass but the long term results are very much the same. Im 5'7" but I definitely strated off way bigger than some posts I see...just curious to know I'd I'm alone lol

My highest weight was 349 8 weeks later im down 60 pounds

My top weight was 450. Lost 60 per surgery in 10 months. Have lost 54 since surgery in 3 months. I'm very happy with my progress so far!

Started at 315, surgery was 294, and 15 weeks post op I am 243.

354 was the number as of May 9th. Today I am proud to say I am already at 323.4!

There are a lot of us who got pretty high before starting out journeys. Best of luck as you begin yours.

You are definitely not alone. I know when I first came here it seemed I was one of the biggest ones, but there are other 'heavy weights'

My highest recorded weight was 379, though I know I was bigger it just wasn't documented.

Today 6 months post op I'm down to 280. Basically 100 pounds down. I hadn't been under 300 in SO long, it's amazing to finally be here.

You can do it!

I srarted on 333 lbs on May 2012... Then i started a diet by myself... Then I had my surgery with 293 lbs on oct 13th... Today im 185.. From size 28 to 14... Today i bought my firs size 14 capri and a Medium Polo...

100 lbs in 6 months is great, I certainly hope I will be down that much in 6 months or less!! I really feel like if I can drop 50+ lbs pretty quickly it will really help with everything, especially exercise and chasing my kids around! I'm having such exciting feelings and I want to share this excitement but I get a lot of negativity from friends and family! I wish they would be more positive about it but all I hear is well I hope you can do it, well I hope it works for you and you don't gain it all back plus some??? Where does this come from, it's like they don't want me to loose the weight! Sorry for the venting, I know this should be positive on here!!! All I know is I'm gonna hold my head high and show them I CAN do it!!!

Wow that's great. Do you do any special exercises?

I bought a stationary bike and at first I rode for 5 minutes and it was all I could do... today I can easily ride 30 minutes on a high resistance. My knees are shot so walking isn't easy. I can say that my walking has improved tremendously. I weighed at the Dr. this week and am down to 378. Most would cringe at that, I am thrilled to be on this side of 400 and going down! Sleeve Surgery is the best thing I have done for myself! I feel so much better!!!

I was 522 to start, now lost 141 since 11/12/12 and si

till losing every day!
