Midemali reacted to kgunchic in I want to hear from others with a lower BMI pre-op
Hi sleeve girl - I'm right where you were! Hope I have the same results. Post B4 and After pics!

My starting BMI was 33.4. I've lost 7 pounds in one week. Sleeved on 8/6/14.
Was wondering about weight loss rate because I'll be ecstatic to be at 142 (my college weight). That's only 36 pounds more.
So glad I don't have so much more to lose than others - and maybe a little guilty, but been over 180 for 18 years. That's enough.
Good luck.

I'm 51. Starting weight was 230, surg wt was 221 on 8/6/2013. Was down to 148 by March. I walk, work out more occasionally than consistently. BMI from 38-39 to 23 in 6-7 mos. Love my sleeve!

Midemali got a reaction from sleevexcited in 8 months out and I can't believe what's happening
I am so excited to read this post, my stats are very similar to yours 'nothing up my sleeve'. My surgery is on the 8 of September and I am so ready to finally stop this roller coaster I have been on. I can not believe that I will lose that sort of weight...

Midemali reacted to phatphotog in 9wks post op 5k! (Pics)
So tonight I walked/jogged my first 5k!!! And I wasn't even close to last! That's all I cared about! Lol two of my girls joined me (7 and 5) and my sister. they did fantastic! I'm SO proud of them!
As a bonus, when I went to shower I decided to step on the scale and was shocked to discover I have hit 50 lbs loss!!! 70 to go! I love, love, love my sleeve! I'm finally LIVING instead of merely existing. It feels amazing! (the first pic was a week or so before surgery)

Everyone is different but guessing if I exercise it will be a lot more than if I don't. Most people hit stalls at 3 months because they don't work out so I'm going to really try to be diligent on the working out as well as the diet. I've been told I can get back in the pool one week post op. I love to swim. My friend from work is probably about 50lbs more than me. She had surgery in February and is now at 70lbs down, so an average of 10lbs per month. But she does not work out at all.

Hi I'm having surgery in 6 days. I'm a low bmi as well. I was told not to lose anything. No pre op diet or liquid diet until after surgery. We'll see how it goes.
