You know you lost weight when

When your partner has been gone for a while (8 weeks..he's a truck driver) and the first thing he says when he gets out of the truck is "Holy CRAP you look great!"

When you are walking and you feel your panties rolling off under your dress because they're too big!

I never crossed my legs really, even when I wasn't large. Now all I do is cross and un-cross my legs to the point I am annoying myself. I love it, It is comfortable and when I do it with a dress on I feel super sexy.

I think women crossing their legs with panties flying off is sexy too. Just saying.

To tell a little known secret about men, we are extremely visual and crossed legs is like a sign saying "hey dumby, check HER out". I've had 4 ear operations when I was younger so there are certain sounds that I don't hear well. The one sound that grabs my head and rips it around is the sound of heels on a hard surface floor. They don't have to be stilettos, just a normal short heel will do it.

When you have consumed so many the idea of drinking another Protein shake in your lifetime makes you nauseous.

Fof the first time in years I have to take clothes off because they are just way too big instead of too tight. Such a big change, mentally I feel so liberated.

THIS! I can't even count how many times over the last 8 months I've thought "man, I can't go outside in this, it's ridiculously big". In the previous 42 years of my life I think I had that thought about ZERO times.

When you have to wear a belt and a scarf to hide how big your old winter sweater dress really fits. Without the belt or the scarf I could not leave my house wearing that dress. It is crazy to me that 7 months ago I could no longer wear it because i looked pregnant in it. Now i have to trap it down so I dont look like I am wearing a rag. Without the belt the dress was way over my knees and the top went so low my boops were showing. Thankfully I had a nice scarf to wrap it around my kneck. I think it time to go shopping. Fof the first time in years I have to take clothes off because they are just way too big instead of too tight. Such a big change, mentally I feel so liberated. I actually tried on a size 14 pants today and a xl skirt and they fit perfectly. I could not believe what i saw in the mirror. ????????????.

Feel so happy for you, the new you and your new life.

      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.
