This is a dress that I've been drooling over in catalogs for forever. The largest size it comes in is a 18. It's on sale, I'm thinking maybe I should buy it and hang it up in front of the fridge. Isn't it awesome?

I want to wear my engagement ring. I'm SO not a jewelry girl and I never thought I'd be all into the bling. But my husband was so sweet and careful in his choice for me. It breaks my heart not to wear it with my wedding band.

Secondly, I want to buy a trampoline and jump on it! The one I want has a weight limit of 175.

Ok. I have more...

-Cut my hair! I keep my long red hair to have one thing decent looking on my body. But I want a cute funky short do when I'm smaller.

-Wear shorts - I stopped wearing them when I was about 10 years old

-Bedroom confidence - yall know what I'm talking about

-Boardroom confidence - ditto

-Go dancing! We used to dance all the time in college...raves, clubs, whatever. We'd come home at dawn. I miss moving so freely and easily without fear of what body part continued to reverberate.

I could go on and on!

I have thought alot about goals! My 9 yr old tells me i am getting "skinnier" because she can wrap her arms around my waist and touch past both wrists...lol.

But the goals:

-to be able to use a regular towel......oh and not to have to powder my thighs!!!

-to get a tatoo

-to get my belly pierced.

-to go to Hawaii---and wear a bathing suit without a tent over me!

-to wear kick ass "come hither" shoes again!

-to wear a midriff.

-to not sit in my van and feel like my butt is the armrest!

-to wear boots---won't now---heels look like hooves to me.

-to go out with total confidence

-to do aerobics again-oddly i miss it

-to dye my hair bimbo blonde just once to make my sister smile.

-to wonder if the underwear in the laundry is mine or my daughters...lol.

-to wear cool makeup.

-to be able to tell hubby when he asks if i am wearing underwear---to say no and turn quickly and know he is checking it out!!!

-to lose the chubby cheeks (on face lol)

-to go back to a "b" cup and burn this "c"-cleavage from "fat" is highly overrated!!!

OMG the list goes on and on.

      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.
