I'm not very active on this site, so I hope I am adding these pictures correctly, but I was so excited by a recent NSV that I had to share! First pics are immediately post-op and then the other day in a TJ Maxx dressing room, lol.

I am just over 6 months out and about 88 lbs down. I recently fit into and bought a size Large Calvin Klein top for $7.00!!! I was excited that I fit into a regular size (I've been in plus sizes FOREVER and am still a 16W or 18R on the bottom). It blows my mind that if I could just go down one more pant size that I will be done with plus size shopping for good!

Thanks!

Lindsey

Thank you! I am getting to a very exciting phase of my weight loss. I'm about 1 lb away from getting out of the obese BMI range and then 15 lbs to onederland. I can't wait to see what this summer has in store for me!

i love taking pictures of my self in cute clothes...I dont buy often because I am waiting until I stop losing, but that doesnt stop me from trying them on. It is the best therapy out there.

You look great! Can't wait to hear about your summer successes!

You look fantastic!!! You are sooo cute!!!! Thank you for taking the time to post the pics. They're very inspiring. I can hardly wait to get to that place where you can pick up "a little something" for under ten bucks!!!!! I've always envied that. You know how they always hit you over the head for plus sizes?! Even a t-shirt!!!! Of course, not to mention looking better in the clothes. I certainly look forward to that too. You look GREAT. Keep up the good work!!!!

Thanks everyone for the replies!

I'm completely cleaning out my closet this weekend and it is so freeing to say good-bye to things I didn't really like, but bought and wore because they were in my size. Woo Hoo!

Looking great!!! I love clearance too! And saying goodbye to PLUS SIZES FOREVER is the most awesome feeling in the world! If I could just figure out how to get off of Lane Bryant's mailing list...now that would be awesome too...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.
