well I am 5"7 and not sleeved yet. Highest weight 262, CW 258(and holding for the stupid 6 month requirement, if I drop more than 3 pounds it kicks me out of the 40 bmi) hoping to reach 155ish but would even be happy at 175.

I'm 5'9.5. Surgery weight was 375, current weight 3 months after surgery is 287.9. My goal weight is 175 which would mean a 200 pound loss, wish me luck!!

Wow everyone is doing fantastic! It's nice to search out similar heights because that usually means we have similar goal weights. I'd say anywhere btwn 147-165? Is that safe to say? Good luck with all of your journeys! Any tips or tricks to break those stalls or anything else to share please do. These posts made my day;)

I'm 5'7" (although my doctor says I've shrunk to 5'6 1/2"!).

High weight was 248.

Surgery date was 3/19 and I was 228, lost 20 in two weeks of pre-op.

Currently sitting at 214 so I have only lost 14 in the 3+ weeks since surgery. :(

I would love to be at 150-160 at the end of everything. Anything lower than that and I feel like I would look tooooo skinny. However I don't remember what I look like at that weight so I might change my mind when I get there!

      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. 🤞
