Everyone is telling me that I look great where I'm at, but if I lose much more, I could start looking sickly. There's truth to that because I'm actually curvy and bog boned, so I carry my weight differently. I'm told I look between 170-175 and not even close to 190, so I'm wondering if 180 will have me looking too thin and not healthy. Yes I am the same. I have a lot of lower body skin that seems to weigh heavy. If I had the surgery I am sure I could reach it. BMI does not account for this. You do look good. So go learn to maintain now haha 1 SleeveToBypass2023 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SleeveToBypass2023 2,650 Posted June 7, 2024 Yep, my doctor thinks that when I have my skin surgeries, I'll go down to a size 12 or large in clothes. So now I have to figure out how to maintain. Never thought I'd be saying THAT lol 1 summerseeker reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ToInfinityAndBeyond 25 Posted June 7, 2024 CONGRATULATIONS!!!! So very, very happy for you! And you look FABULOUS. DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE SCALE! You look like much less than 190! I am betting your body fat percent is much lower than what your BMI might lead one to think. 1 SleeveToBypass2023 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SleeveToBypass2023 2,650 Posted June 8, 2024 Thank you guys so much!!! I actually need to stay away from the scale because I saw today that I'm 188!!! I mean, HOW??? So now the trick is going to be figuring out how to maintain. I'm quite happy where I'm at and think I want to stay here. 1 KarenLR75 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
