I'm not a pre-bander, I'm about 9 weeks post op, but I do have a "bucket list" for when I'm at goal.

The little celebration I've already had was losing enough to fit comfortably in my Victorias Secrets. Funny as it may sound, I bought them a long time ago and never got to wear them, so I did a happy dance when I finally had the nerve to try them on and they were almost too big.

On to serious goals - when I hit 160 lbs I'm going to go skydiving. I'm going to buy a whole new wardrobe. I'm going to buy that "little black dress" and hit the town with my sister-in-law. I'm also going to do some sort of organized run - not a marathon by no means, but something smaller.

I figure mixing fun rewards in there, along with my serious ones, I'll stay motivated. So far so good.

- New clothes in the styles I like, NOT the crappy kind they carry in plus. Plus no more fat tax on the cute clothes you can find in plus!

- rock climbing!

- Not feeling like I don't deserve my man when we go out in public.

- Warrior Dash.

- Wearing a swimsuit (one piece, no need for skimpy here) without constantly worrying about what bulge might be showing.

- A sexy negligee for the bedroom ;)

- My reward for goal is to get my hair died a natural red color. I have always loved red hair, but never had the nerve to try it because if it turns out bad, then I'm left with bad hair and a chunky face (let's be honest folks, the color/cut can make or break a fat face).

      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.
