pdevsha 1 Posted July 10, 2015 I just started my process for WLS w/BMI of 38. It's good to see others here with a BMI similar to mine. I haven't shared my intention with for surgery but with only three people as I don't don't want to be criticized for taking the "easy" way out. In the past I have tried several weight loss methods with some success but when they are stopped or slowed down the weight comes back and more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Georgiagirl27 17 Posted July 10, 2015 My BMI was 35 when I had my surgery. I weighed 230 and I'm 5'8. I was about a size 16/18. I lost 23 pounds my first month and each month after that I lost around 10 pounds. I reached my goal in ten months. I weigh 130 and my BMI is 20. I am below my goal weight and have maintained this weight for seven months. I know everyone is different but maybe you will be one of the lucky ones and will lose quickly . The most important thing to me was not how quickly I lost weight just that I had a steady weight loss. Watching the scale move downward each week is the best feeling in the world !!!
