Oh boy, tee hee

I am most definitely still a work in progress.

Just went to buy new bras today, its actually harder than it was previously.

I've gone down a back size, but my bazoongas havent shrunk which means to go down a back size I had to go up a cup size. I'm now a 16E as opposed to the 20DD I was when I started (had a couple of old 18DD's lying round).

Its VERY difficult to find a bra in a large cup size but relatively small back size.

Not only that but I went in the disabled change room becuase I had my daughter in the pusher with me, and I got to view myself full length from a good 2 to 3 metres away. :faint: Um, what was I thinking? I've been swanning round feeling fantabulously hot, lol. Nuh uh, no way. Still loads of work to do on this old bod. Those love handles and back boobs are still there, just smaller.

And I'm definitely certain I'm having a breast lift and reduction, maybe even before I get all the way to goal, say at about 80kg. They are a disaster, mammoth sized and soooooo droopy and saggy, they look worse than half the before pics you see.

But boy do they look good in brand new bra's. I cant see my feet, they look like two cantaloups sitting on my chest!

Hahahaha, dont you just love those fitting room mirrors. They give me a complex. Wow with that size breast I think the reduction would be covered, it would have to cause backpain and problems later on.

I walk around feeling all svelt too -- and then I see myself in the mirror and I'm still large!! Duh -- I weigh over 200lbs -- that's NOT petite!!! You know what though, it's relative to the size we used to be, and dang it, we've worked hard and should feel good! You know what E cup today is D cup in a few months, that's what I say!!!! Enjoy your success and just let it keep inspiring you!

Jacqui,

LMBO... where else can you talk about 'bazoongas' and people completely understand?!

MY bazoongas look like cantelopes IN a bra, but take the bra off and they drop into tube socks. What a before and after shot THIS would be!

And Im too chicken for BR, so... my chances of ever going braless are NEVER.

Even though the store mirror's showed some flaws, just remember...

You may not be where you want to be.

But *THANK GOD* you are NOT where you used to be! :clap2: :clap2:

Yeah those dressing room mirrors can make you laugh and cry. They tell the truth so we have to listen. I normally end up saying to myself "what were you thinking" yes sometimes go straight home sniviling in the car.

      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.
