Just was wondering if anyone was around the same weight and height as me so I can kind of compare with each other.

Just was wondering if anyone was around the same weight and height as me so I can kind of compare with each other.

My highest weight was 263. When I decided to move forward on losing weight I was about 254. I am now 15 months out and around 138-139.

I'm actually in worse shape than you. I am 4'10" and am currently 267. Just starting this journey. Appointment with Surgeon June 5. Currently on supervised diet, although I did not do well at all this month. Got fired today from my job. Maybe the stress will subside now and I can get on with my life.

I started my journey in Jan. I am scheduled for surgery in july. I am 5'3 and started out at 272 and am now at 235. I have tried really hard to follow the recommendations that they gave me (nutrition and exercise). I was also started on metformin at thew start so I think that may have helped in how much I have lost so far.

Losingson I am so sorry about your job. :(

Those were my exact stats! I'm now at 3.5 months and down about 67lbs and in Onderland.

It's been a good ride so far. I really need to get on the excercixe train, but excuses and legitimate stress has made it hard.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
