Question:
I am 5'10 330lbs Anyone else?
I am two weeks pre-op and I'm looking to find out if anyone started out close to where I am at? I'm wondering what my weight loss will be like. — feminine271 (posted on January 9, 2003)

I am 5'8'' and started at 336. I was 320 at surgery date. I am 4 months
now and weigh 246. I don't exercise and I have yummy treats now and then.
Otherwise, I might do better, but I am very happy with weight loss so far.
I started at a 26 I thought, but my 28 jeans were tight when I got home
from hospital so was probably a 30. I am a 22 now in jeans, and an XL in
shirt. I lost a lot faster up top and my "roll" in hanging on
for dear life. When I was this weight before, I think I wore a 20 pants,
but I did not have this big of a roll (and I had lost weight slower - no
surgery)

I am 5 ft. 9 and before my surgery I weighed 295... Surgery was Oct 16th
& that means I have lost 53 lbs. in a little under 3 months.. I was
wearing sz. 26/28 & that was tight yesterday I wore a 22/24 & it
was really loose.. I think that some people just loose slower than others,
I also think that if you were only 100 to 150 lbs overweight you loose a
little slower than those who had more to loose... I am happy that I had
this surgery, most of the time .. There are times when I still wonder why I
did it... Like at holiday dinners or when I am out to lunch with the office
at an all you can eat buffet.. LOL... But the majority of the time I am
happy & feel healthier & have tons more energy... So best of luck
to you & if you have the surgery please be sure to follow your doctors
instructions..
