Ok Im insane for even considering posting pics but here I am... LOL

I hit 100 lbs (on the nose) down today. My husband took the before pics the night before my surgery. I hadn't looked at them until today. It was QUITE a wake up call to me. I've still got about another 50 lbs to go. It depends on how I feel I look when I get there. I'm aiming for a size 10. My "after" picture was taken when I wanted to see what the dress I ordered for my brother in laws wedding looked like (we did away with mirrors in our house years ago. I guess it's time to get some full length mirrors huh?)

haha you know I'm not quite sure who that skinny b***h is in that other picture ;)

i gotta tell you though.. this was the first time I looked at the pre op picture. Talk about a serious wake up call. I still saw myself as the basketball with hair up until I saw the side by side. I now see what everyone's been talking about. I never thought I'd hit 100 lbs down... ever. :)

It IS too big on me! And my mother in law measured me the day I ordered the damned thing. Yesterday morning I called around to see where I could get it altered within a decent amount of time. One of the cleaners said they had a 2-3 day turn around time. I explained to him the WLS and trying to cut it down to the wire on the alteration. I'm going to take it in probably a week & a half before the wedding and hope I don't end up with the Alice in Wonderland effect. And trying it on didnt even involve the Spanx which I've yet to buy. I did get some sheer hose with the black seams up the back to tart things up a bit ;)

      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. 🤞
