I am 5'2" - at my heaviest I was 210 (size 18/20)- had surgery on June 16, 2014 my weight was 196. I was about 175 in August and 150 in November.

Now almost a year out I'm down to 128 (size5/6) - my goal is 125 so I'm almost there!

My only regret is the thinning hair...........but loving the short cut now that it is summertime.

I am 5'1 and started out around 250... I'm not sure what to put my goal weight because in the past I did get down to 170 and really liked the way I looked... so I'm thinking at 150 I will LOVE the way I look!

So for now I have a few smaller goals... Under 200, 170, 150... once I get to 150 I will look at my body and how I feel to determine what weight I should aim for.

I am 5'2 and originally I had my goal at 115 but I am pretty muscular and always have been. I've always played sports and even now workout 6 days a week. I am currently around 120 and it was hard to find a full body picture. But here's one of my husband and I at the Super bowl and I was 125

Did you have a lot of excess skin mahickmore

I still have a tummy, but doesn't "fold over" just a bulge - looks like I'm expecting in about the 4 month range!!

My upper arms and thighs are doing that "crepeing/sagging" thing.

But since I am almost 60 so don't think it will go away unless I go the plastics route and not doing that as it would be self pay. And honestly doesn't really bother me that much.

      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!!
