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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
