Question:
Anyone start at about 5'5
I know everyone is different, but I wondered how much someone who started about the same as me lost at 3 months post-op? I am an apple shape, if that helps. Also, were you ready to go on a trip at 3 mos post-op? It is a driving trip for about 5-6 hours to the beach? — [Anonymous] (posted on February 26, 2002)

Hi, I had my lap RNY on 8-13-01. At 3 mos. I had lost 55 lbs. I have now
lost 110 lbs at just over 6 mos. I started at 270 and 5'4". I could
have gone on a trip on the second week for 5 or 6 hours to the beach. Just
make sure to stretch your legs to keep circulation going. I've never been
so happy in my life!

Well I don't know if we are the same as you didn't list your weight or your
name so I could check your profile. But at 3 months you will definately be
able to travel. I say this as someone who was sick after surgery and had
real food tolerance problems. Just make sure you bring your vitamins &
protein and have a plan for food.

Hi, I lost 55 lbs. by 3 months and I started traveling at two and a half
weeks out. I did it for Thanksgiving and then again at Christmas. Both
times were an 8 hour trip. Enjoy your travels! Oh, and I am
5'5.5":~) and also an apple..big time!
