Tall Women, Tell Me Your Story!

[tredfern 2]

I am 5'10" and got beyond my goal to 150lbs and was still losing. Gained back to 165lbs and I have been maintaining for 1.5 years. Let me tell that the idea of getting to 150 was mind blowing, so was gaining back and maintenance. People told me I was too skinny but I believe it is because their reference was the fat me. Good luck!

Hi all,

I had my op on April 15. at 150Kgs......I am down to 100.4 this morning. I am 6"6 so i am hoping to find an extra 5kgs (12lbs) in the next few months....

sleeping better, better mood, Waist size was a 44-46 now at a 34.

I'm loving the new me.

Tredfern do you mind me asking what size you wear at 165lbs? I'm curious what size you started at and are wearing now for pant, top and shoe. I started at a tight 22 and size 11W shoes. My shoes are all too big now and I would love to be a regular size 10M in shoes again. Right now I'm wearing a size 16 pant a little bigger in tops.

Hello tall sleevers

I have been up and down with my weight the last two weeks since Thanksgiving. Went up after the holiday, then had a big loss because I got the stomach flu. Then my birthday hit and I rebounded back up. Realistically, I know I didn't "gain" that much weight in a week - it's Water, etc. and my body getting back to normal, but it was a blow to the ego. I was SOOOO CLOSE to being under 200lbs....and then I wasn't. I'm back to "normal" eating, Protein first, veggies second...and getting in my Water. I WILL GET UNDER 200lbs soon! My goal is by 12/31. I've got 3 weeks...I am going to do it..

The sleeve is a wonderful tool and I need to use it. I still have the same goal of 165lbs...which is about 41lbs to go. I may not get to 165, but if I got under 180 I think I would be happy with that. We will see how my body feels at that weight.

Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the holiday season. Whatever you Celebrate - hope it's filled with health & joy.
