    I am 5'7 and 30.9 BMI. I am curious how your weighloss is going since we dont have as much as the others does it fall of the same? Are you having problems with losing too much? Pictures?

    I am 5'2" - and now at 133 pounds. Want to lose just a few more pounds. It's been just over 8 months for me to lose the weight - I started at a BMI of 37.

    I'm 5'2" and now at 130 lbs. I started at 219lbs or 40 BMI. I had surgery on June 4th and was 200lb and reached 135 by Christmas. I'm happy where I am now.

    I'm 5'4" and had a BMI of 33 when I went in for surgery. I lost 51 lbs in 6 months but have been stalled for the past three months. I would love to lose another 8 lbs so I started the 5 day pouch test today. Hopefully that will be the jump start I need to get it moving again. I think we lose a little slower and start stalls sooner than those with a lot more to lose but I personally have not a problem with losing too much. At least not yet.

    I was sleeved 2nd Feb 2015.
    I am 5' tall, 153.5 cm
    Day of surgery I weighed 155.4 lb, 70.48 kg. My BMI was 30.5
    Yesterday was week 7 and I weighed 131.2 lb, 59.5 kg and BMI 25.73
    So that's 24.2 lb loss in 7 weeks.
    I am fairly active, and am not able to eat much. Not getting in enough protein (I am seeing a dietician).
    The dietician is happy with my weight loss and says that I am 'on track'
    She has set my goal weight at 53 kg 116 lb BMI 22.9, I have set it at 50 kg 110 lb BMI 21.6- she is happy with that. She also mentioned 48 kg...105 lb...BMI of 20.7
    but I think that I would look scrawny then as I do have big bones.

    I'm 5'5" and started with a BMI around 32.5. Within 2 months, I was no longer overweight. By 6 months my BMI was starting to head below 20, so my doctor and dietician actually asked me to up my carbs. I'm just over a year out now and hovering right around 20-20.5 (120-123 lbs), so the carb increase did halt the weight loss. Here's hoping the weight doesn't start creeping up too much as time goes on and I've gotten used to being still able to eat carbs!

    I'm 5.4 and started at 216lbs. (38.2 BMI) I weighed 205 when I had my surgery Aug 6th and now I'm 145 with a BMI of 25. I would like to be around 130, but I think that is going to be pretty hard, so I'm hoping to be in the mid 130's and maintain my weight. I workout a lot now and that helps to keep me balanced out mentally since I used to eat whenever stressed out.

    How much does age have to do with it?
    denzel - you were 5" and weight 150?

    I'm 5'2 and weigh 187 I'm debating doing this at all.. it will work out to about $100/pound. LOL
