Not sure what my size is now because I have so many things in various sizes that stretch! 😂. Best guess is I’ve gone down 1.5 sizes so far. (My 26’s were extremely tight when I started.)2 -

Highest weight - 2009 - 120kg
Weight post 2010 gastric band - 80kg
Weight climb after cancer op 2011, and refil broke band 2017 106kg
Gastric bypass (with Fobi pouch) end 2017 104kg
Post surgery weight 62kg - astounded even me as 80 was my goal!!
I am running 5k 3x a week, occasionally 10k. Gym strength training 4x a week. Cycling 3x a week in summer. And loving my life in a whole new way.
BUT I have learned I can still backslide into old habits, put weight on. I put on 2kg in the last 2 months (stressful time, so I excused bad habits) but have lost 1kg of it in the last fortnight.
I am half the woman I was, living twice the life I was...

Hi!
I had VSG in Mexico 7.5 weeks ago so still new to the game. Would love to add a few surgery buddies.
HW: 242lbs
SW: 233lb
CW: 196.6lbs
Obviously still losing but my goal is 130lbs. I’m 5’7” and currently in a size 12-14 pant and Large top (that’s down from an 18-20 pant and XXL top).
I wore a Size 11W shoe prior and I’m down to a 10M now. Really shocked that my feet lost weight!
Prior to surgery I had no energy, osteoarthritis in my knees and back, chronic plantar fasciitis and tendonitis so walking was super painful, sleep apnea, hormone imbalance and low TSH. I was self conscious and miserable.
I’m so happy I stopped putting off surgery! I have energy and I feel good even though I’m still early in my journey. I can walk without pain and do body weight exercises at home. My goal is to be able to run again and once I feel a bit more comfortable with the COVID situation I plan on hitting the gym!2 -
Highest Weight = 500+
Gastric Bypass - April 2008??
Lowest Weight = 278
Current Weight = 300
Doctor warned me that I would never see 50 if I didn't do something about my weight. I turned 60 in January! I was on 12 different medicines before the surgery to include high doses of pain killers and sleep medicine. Now, my biggest problem is controlling my diabetes. My A1C before surgery was as high as 15. Now it is around 7.5 with a goal of 6. I've gained 15 pounds in the last three months so I decided to get back at it. I've started back on my low carb eating with a goal of 275 by my 35th wedding anniversary in October.
Friend me for some two way support.1 -
I have been looking into the gastric bypass option. I am scared of making such a change but I am told that I won’t regret it.
I’m 5’5” tall; had gotten up to 252; currently at 245.
Any thoughts from those of you that have experienced this procedure?
I’d really appreciate your feedback.
Thanks!

5’2” 38 y.o.
Highest weight: 296 lbs. 4/14/19
VSG - Weight day of surgery: 280 lbs. 5/16/19
Current weight: 157 lbs. 12/12/20
Goal weight: 136 lbs.
I’m in the best shape of my life thanks to my sleeve. I regret nothing. For the first time in my life I have control over what I eat and how much. It’s the best feeling in the world to not feel controlled by food.
I try to get 10k steps/4 miles walking per day, drink 64+ oz of fluids and eat ~1400 calories with a minimum 80g of protein. 40/30/30 macros.
My goal for the new year is going to be to incorporate more strength training because I have been terrible about that!

Hi name is Laura, I live in Orange County, CA
I was sleeved on 2/10/2020
I am 5'1
Start weight 283 size 22-24 pants/3XL shirts
Current weight 193 Size 14 Pants (I have a big butt) / Large shirts.
I hot my rock bottom was when I got rushed to the ER with from my doctors office with my BP 238/164 with swollen purple feet and resting heart rate of 128. I got placed on my 3rd blood pressure medication. I had constant back pain, I slept 12 hours a day and was out of breath just walking to the bathroom.
I had big plans to join the gym after I was cleared but of course we were in a pandemic so I have not worked out much at all. My weight loss slowed in November. Enjoyed myself in December and began Keto in January and the scale is moving again. I'm hoping to get down to 150 at some point this year. I'm ok if it takes all year
I MIGHT consider Gastric Bypass if I cannot get under 175. Skin removal will be considered in the future as well.
