What is your height?



Recommended Posts

i'm 5'1.5 . My goal weight is 125. I'm probably going to get a boob job around 135-140 and then drop down to 120 to get the Tummy Tuck and see how i feel at that point.

mommy2boys,

I will need a FTT and maybe some Lipo around my breasts as well as breast augmentation once I drop down to 140lbs. Years of bad eating behavior got me here. I also know that years of working out will not get rid of this flabby skin hanging around my abdomen. There's no way thousands of crunches will rid of it. I'm down for P.S. no doubt!

The sad thing is, lately I've been feeling like a champ about my weight loss. I've also been reading the Pregnancy Threads and I look at my little girl alot, wishing I had 1 more kid. I'm torn really.

I'm 6' foot even. I am lucky I am big framed!! When I had to tell my mom (she did sleep study) how heavy I was - 426 she was floored she thought 350 or so but I have always been told I carry my weight well. I was banded 6-20-05 I have lost 75 pounds in a year - I think I will be happy at 220 - 230 but dr says he would like 180 - 190 so we will see. I just want to be under 300 and then worry about the rest.

I am 5'6" and my goal is 138. I'm thinking about adjusting that upwards. I don't think I can get that low again without looking "sick".

My husband is 5' even and weighs 170. Yep, we look like an "odd couple" but it doesn't bother either of us. I know him from the inside and to me he is 10 ft tall!

I am 5"10 and my goal weight is 180 pounds, hopefully a size 12.

Most of my friends and family tell me my face won't be able to take anything under 180 but I think I'm doing OK. I will listen and take there advice since I've come from 283lbs.

I'm starting to think maintenance is going to hard.

I'm 5'9" and my goal is just to be under 200. I was 140 in college (many years ago!!) but that was actually too thin. My dream would be 175, but I'll b e happy to make it to 199.

I would love to get down to 110 but would be thrilled with 115.:banana I think I'll be happy when I get to 120-125 even.:)

I'm 5'4" and I'm hoping to get down to 140. I'm not sure what is the "ideal" weight for my height, but 140 sounds good.

I am 5' 5 1/2" and 184. Goal from doc is 138 - 145 but at 184 I am a size 12 so I think 138 is too low. I would be happy at 155. Good luck to everyone!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
