Guest guest Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 Hiya all, I am still researching the different surgeries.. was serriously considering r-ny..now not so sure.. I am thinking more along the lines of ds. (Bet no one has heard that one before! lol ) Anyway, I have been reading your posts and I am curious about this one: > Unless you are very short it is probably unrealistic to expect to > > drop to 125 lbs.

Does anyone know of a good reference? Thank you for your time. All my best- Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taller folk can weigh more; shorter folk less. For example, the normal weight for a 6-footer is around 170. Don't expect a 6-footer to drop to 125 unless he was on death's door. --Steve -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
