My hubby always thought I was a "10" regardless of what size pants I wore but today I couldn't put it off for much longer and went to Marshalls for some pants, ended up buying 2 pairs of capri length pants that I can wear with flats for the rest of the Summer and boots in the Winter and 1 pair of dress pants all for 36.00. Not too bad. But every pair of pants I tried on today was a 10, and they all fit perfectly!!! So needless to say I am stoked!! Can we say size 8 here we come?? I think I can lol From a size 18 to 10 in 4 1/2 months not too bad.

That is awesome :) What made me smile the most was when you said that your husband said you were a 10 no matter what pants you were! You are a lucky woman! Congrats on hitting the size 10. I can't wait to be there!

Congrats and thank you for sharing! I have a huge event the third week of January and I am so excited and a bit anxious to see what size I will be at that time. My hubby is like yours and always says I'm beautiful no matter what size I am, hubbys like ours are a true blessing!

Good luck to you and I hope you reach those 8s before you know it!

I will post pics as soon as I can ;) I am amazed at how well they fit too. no muffin top or pinching just button and zip it up LOL . Thanks guys. I have to say I didn't lose anything this week but I don't think these would have fit me like this last week. This whole process is weird, rewarding, frustrating, exhiliarating, etc. etc. But thank goodness for all you guys here because it helps to keep my attitude positive to know that there are others that are going through the same thing as me. Lord knows as much as hubby has supported me through this entire process and obsessing, I know I wear him down sometimes and have to button my lip 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. 🤞
