Lil Miss Ree 12 Posted September 1, 2012 You are all my new best friends!! I'm 5'11. 6 foot on a tall day. I think I wanna be 185 but I don't remember 185 so I don't know how I'll look. I too feel like everyone is shorter and I can't get an idea of what to expect at a lower weight but you all helped a lot. Yayyyy for talk girls in 4 inch heels. Because let me tell you, I can't wait til my 4" heels can stay on lover than an hour. I'm getting there. My 2-3" work shoes no longer come off at work so I'm hoping my weeked shoes follow soon.

AbbieRoad 26 Posted September 2, 2012 Ok ladies (or gentlemen) I would LOVE to stay in touch & up to date with some fellow Tall sleevers! If you're interested, I made a group on Facebook we could chat, exchange help, pics, whatever! It's a closed group so nobody will see what is posted unless they're a member of the group. I just named it "Tall Group" because I didn't want to put "VGS" or anything in the title incase someone is keeping their surgery a secret. (like me, I'm only telling immediate family) Here it is! https://www.facebook.com/groups/165852786884597/ 1 ediebumpkin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

npm518 146 Posted September 2, 2012 I am 5'10 with my highest weight at 306. Currently at 284 and my date is set for 9/11. In a size 20 (althoughy they are getting tight) and 2x top. Goal is 175 (but I've never been that skinny so I have no idea how my body will be there) 1 Rainhaiter reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tallysfunny 363 Posted September 2, 2012 If you're tall regardless of sex, you are welcome to this group. I know I'm used to standing with the guys since I've been this tall since I was 13. I don't think most people get that even if we get to a size 10-12, we will always be viewed as bigger due to our heights. Oh well, it is what it is. We can be here for each other and know that WE all get where we are all coming from. Hugs to all!! Have a happy and safe holiday weekend. 1 AbbieRoad reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KatieOkieDokie 171 Posted September 2, 2012 Ok short girl jumping in here (5'4) but I'm not going to talk about me because well that would make no sense whatsoever. However, my best friend Cat had the sleeve about 3.5 months ago, she is 6 foot, and started out at I believe 385, and was down to around 360 day of surgery. Since then she has lost probably around 65lbs and looks AMAZING!! I wish I could put her before and after photos on here, but I wouldn't do that without her permission. I'll ask her though! I don't remember what her goal weight is though. I need to get her to join this site! 1 AbbieRoad reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XTwisted_LemonX 12 Posted September 2, 2012 I guess I would be the smallest of the Amazon women since I'm only 5'9, my surgery is scheduled for September 26 and my goal weight is about 170. I'm currently 317 and my shoe size is 11. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
