5'7'' and 476 lbs. I'm a snug 32 and a comfortable 34 (much harder to find 34s though). I can't wait for the day that I can actually shop in a normal store and forget about Lane Bryant and Avenue! (Which, by the way, hardly ever have anything over a size 28. Bastards.)

325 lbs, 5'10", size 26/28 depending on brand. Personally, I can't wait to get out of plus sizes. Why are the necklines so huge? As if anyone wants to see my cleavage or bra straps. It's so sloppy looking. Plus, I'm 32 and dress like my grandmother.

It is interesting how people carry their weight. 5'5" and 245 and I'm in a 16/18. At 165 (my goal weight) I'm in a size 10 and medium shirt.

I am starting my journey out at 5'6" 289 and size 24. My mother-in-law is the only other person that knows my clothes size. She does not know what I weigh, I have never said it out loud to anyone in my family, not even my husband, :wacko: .

I am hoping to to get ack down to 145lbs and a 5/6. This is where I was when I got married 10 years ago.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
