About 2 months ago Target had a sale on junior size jeans. They were 4 bucks a pair! How could I not get a pair for that cheap? Well I bought a size 11S junior size and of course they did NOT fit then. Hell, I couldn't even squeeze the fat in and close them! This morning for two weeks in a row I weighed in at 171lbs. Yayy me! (I know my flux's at this point, I'll lose a couple of pounds and stay there up and down about 2-3 lbs for a couple of weeks. Its ok, I accept that now!) I took them out of the bag looked, scrunched my nose, thought do I want to be disapointed if they don't fit?? Screw it, I tried them on....*happy, happy, happy dance, wiggle my ass around the room, smiling and and laughing and checking myself out in the mirror* They fit with NO MUFFIN TOP!!! I didn't think they would, they just looked so small to my eyes. Well let me just say nothing is going to wipe this stupid big grin from my face today :D Can you feel my giddiness??? I bet you can ;)

You go girl!! I bought a size medium top today that was way to cute to pass up. Hung it in my room to stare at in hopes that I can wear it next summer. You give me hope! So happy for you! :)

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
