What is the most you've ever weighed? The least?



Recommended Posts

The most I've ever weighed (that I can prove!) is 330. I think I probably went above that by ten pounds or so at one point but I refused to get on the scale and find out for fear of flinging myself off the nearest high building.

The least I've ever weighed as an adult is 232. I weighed 250 when I graduated high school so I've always been fat. If I can get to 231 pounds in this journey at least I'll weigh the least I've ever weighed in my adult life.

What about you?

My highest (with proof) is 298. Like you, I'm sure I tipped over that by about 10-15 pounds at some point, but never weighed myself.

The lowest as an adult, I don't know. I know I was in size 20-22 jeans after high school, but I'm not sure. I would guess around 220/230.

I can't wait to be less than 200 - It's been so long.

Gloucester, you are so close to the 100s! I'm thrilled for you! I see that you currently weigh what I weighed at my smallest. I felt so small then!

256 the day I joined WW in August of last year. That's about 20lbs more than I ever was 9 months pregnant. Nice.

I think I weighed in the 130s in the first bits of high school, but the least I've ever weighed as a grown up was 147. At 147 I looked like a dinosaur because I have an unusually large head. Big head - small body = not a good look.

Highest 295, right after thanksgiving and before my band. My initial weight in before getting the band I was at 284 and my weight ticker starts at 284. My lowest? 143.5. I was 17.

My highest weight was at my pre-op appointment on 2/20. I was 350 lbs.

Lowest? Well, I weighed about 180 when I graduated from high school almost 12 years ago. I've gained steadily since, putting on weight in 20-30 lb spurts every few months. When I had my youngest child 5 years ago, I weighed 270 so I gained quite a bit in the last 5 years.

The highest recorded is 328. I may have been more at some point, not sure. I got down to 260 a couple of years ago, but gained it all back. I think it will be a milestone when I get below that. I weighed 240 when I was 16. I think I may have been lower at some point during my adult life, but I don't remember. I don't think I've been under 200 in a long, long time.

Now see Gibson!!! This is why we need you to stick with us - even if you get stuck in a plateau. You come up with the most creative and funny threads.

My highest was the horrifying 287 on my surgeon's scale on January 7, 2008. My lowest was 145 in my young adulthood. I was actually fairly normal sized until my first pregnancy. Goodness, those kids made me chubby! Luckily they're so cute I've forgiven them for what they did to my body!!

(who am I kidding.... the blame should fall more on macaroni and cheese, and Cherry Garcia ice cream than on my kids)

Well... let's see...

My highest "recorded" weight is 315. I know I lost about 15 pounds before getting the nerve to actually step on a scale. This was about 3+ years ago. I lost under the 300# mark quickly down to about 275-285 and stayed there for a few years. That is why I chose to get a Lap-Band because I have so much trouble with Portion Control.< /p>

My lowest was in HS, as I used to almost kill myself to stay thin. I was always yo-yo'ing between 135 and 150. Right after graduation the pounds starting creeping up and I stopped weighing myself (often). I must have gained about 85 to 100 pounds at that time, as I was 235.

Then I got married - and gained *alot*!! Another near 100 pounds! Augh!! Well, thanks to my new my new healthy attitude and band friend, all that will change

Well, my highest recorded weight is 252 (before my pre-op diet), and I'm only 5'2" . . . so ugh! :biggrin: My lowest adult weight was in the 140's (my early 20's, when I was in college . . . I've never been a thin person). When I got married, I was 152 . . . 16 years ago, so that's my goal weight! One hundred pounds needs to go. I told my hubby he was gonna get the lady he married back! :) Plus that's when I felt my best . . . I'm gonna try hard to get there!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
