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'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!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
