What weight to you use for your starting weight? Your highest? Your weight when you started the pre-op liquid diet? Your weight on the day of your surgery?

[DaisyAmy 561]

For the purposes of this forum, I've seen most people give 3 weights: highest (HW), surgery (SW), and current (CW).

So mine is HW 310ish, SW 255, CW 226 (surgery 12/14/15)

I count from surgery weight. My highest was 340 years ago, my surgery weight was 320 my current is 228, but I will say I've lost 91lbs not 112. that's just my personal opinion though.

I use the weight I was at the beginning of my 2 week pre op diet. I didn't do much dieting before those 2 weeks so that was probably my highest weight anyway.

HW 321, SW 314, CW 188 surgery was 5/20/2015.

I forgot to add my surgery date was 9/9/15.

My starting weight is what I weighed in at at my first WLS appointment, 335.

As my starting weight I used what I weighed the day I started my preop diet (which also happened to be my heaviest).

[Inner Surfer Girl 12,015]

I use the highest weight I know about.

Thanks everyone! I've decided to use the highest weight I've had since I started the revision approval process. Which was when I started the pre-op diet I'd December for a surgery that was cancelled the day before surgery.

HW - 249

SW - 240

CW - 231

Hi. My HW was 409, SW was 370 and my CW is 150. I'm 4'11". I feel great!

My surgeon's office considers my starting weight to be what it was the day of my first appointment. I consider it to be what it was the day I decided to pursue surgery and scheduled an appointment (which also happened to be my highest weight).
