I have the same problem. I have lost my thighs and my behind. I since I have lost weight every where else that my belly will be next.

Congratulations! At least you are not gaining in those areas or others. It takes a long time to lose the weight and its hard to pick on a spot and just lose weight there. But overall weight loss is what we all want. I've dropped 6 inches on my waist and have had to buy pants a couple of times already. Hoping to achieve my 100 weight loss sometimes this year.

Best wishes

Everyone loses and gains in different areas first. If you keep on keeping on your belly and bottom will shrink and firm.

Congrats on the loss thus far.

Me too, Rhonda. I have lost 50 since before my surgery and I am still wearing the same pants. My pant legs are definitely baggy and yes, they are looser in the waist but I don't think I am ready for the next size smaller yet. Very frustrated, too.

This will come too! It take a while for the whole body to redistribute our weight loss. Don't lose faith!

My co-workers have called me droopy bottom because of my baggy pants. One of my employees called me the incredibly shrinking woman today. (We have a very relaxed work environment.) Everyone is so proud of me though. My legs and butt area are baggy. They say they can see a difference in my face too. I don't see it but I can tell the difference in my jeans. Like you guys I am just waiting on the belly to start going down. LOL

      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. 🤞
