I was sleeved febuary 26 and have lost 40lbs so far. I am just wondering if there are any others out there who has any advice for us shorter people with lower bmi

According to your profile you have lost 40 lbs in 6 months. Have you ever lost this much weight before? You are half way to your goal. Keep up the good work.

I'm curious to follow your progress. I'm 5' also and am currently around 220. I haven't started preop yet. Surgery 10/17. I fear doing all of this to lose 35 pounds.

Yes i have before years ago on weight watchers. i just havs never been able to keep it off and stay at goal without starving myself. My doctors and his team say i am doing good. I am just afraid it will slow down and i will have done all this for nothing. I am now loosing like 4lbs a month.

There is a thread called lightweights in the house. It is full of people like is. Check it out!
