I'm 5'3" so pretty short. I started out before surgery at 229 pounds. And a BMI of about 42, I think. I'm only 8 weeks post surgery. My insurance is Anthem BCBS and they covered it 100%. I've lost 28 pounds.

I'm 4'11." Started this process at 229 with a BMI of 46. My actual highest recored weight in my medical record is 242 (BMI 49) about 3 yrs ago. I'm 7 months post op and doing great. Not quite sure what my ultimate goal will be but stated goal is what my doc said he thought I could get to. My insurance is a private plan through the hospital I work for.
