Sylvia 18 Posted December 29, 2012 I had surgery 11/5/12. My starting weight was 415 im now 355. Ive lost 60 pounds. I was in a size 28 not sure what size i am now because i refuse to buy new clothes just yet lol. Im wondering is it possible for someone my size to ever get down to a size 10?? Thats my goal size. Looking for people that were near or above 400 lbs to start.Anyone out there?? If so give me some advice on how you did it? Thanks amd happy new year everyone!!!!! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLCoggin 1,788 Posted December 29, 2012 If you follow the protocol as close to the letter as you possibly can, stay active, and stay away from the scales - anything, any size is possible! Trust the process and trust your body to find its own way in its own time. You can't rush it. It's great to have a goal to work toward but even better to understand that your body will tell you when its at the right weight for you. Listen to it. There is no one size fits all. You're gonna love the new you!! 1 TinyMamiOf3kids reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted December 29, 2012 Awww man I don't know anyone but here there are a few near or close to 400. Even if I was no where near 400 pounds I can tell you that I was 211 pounds & I never imagine ever thought I would be a size 2 from a size 18. Now I weight 124 pounds. I'm going to be 7 months post up tomorrow. I feel great & so will you no matter what weight & size we start. Nothing is impossible. 2 gottagetfit and cookier224 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rhonda 6 Posted December 31, 2012 I was 376 when I had my surgery on 6/6/12. I'm now at 271! I never really thought about what size I'd be but I've been focusing on ideal weight for my height. I'm only 5'2". So my goal according to a chart I found ( height, weight, age and sex) was about 140. I have a long way to go but I've got a good start! I've only bought new undergarments. Just been shopping in my closet for clothes. Pretty soon I'm going to have to go so I'm thinking about going to Goodwill. I have a rewards card from there and they have a woman's clothing section.
