Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

I have embraced a new GOAL!!



Recommended Posts

This morning I am getting my last procedure performed. The results from my previous one has already provided results beyond my wildest dreams! I still have so much swelling to go down, I just can't believe how amazed I am!

So... I had these jeans I bought. They are Levi's Size 4 / 27 Skinny Jeans I bought from their website. Now these are REAL size 4's. They are more like Size ZERO in stores or vanity sizing. I had them sitting around wondering if I could or even should ever try to really get into them. Well, with my results so far I finally believe that goal is really achievable.

I announce here and now, this is MY NEW GOAL!! I virtual size 0. ZERO!!!

I am going to buy some 0's from the store so I'll be able to say that I really am in Zero's but I seriously doubt it will really matter. I know I'll do it.

I didn't know where else to place this. It's not really a "success" just yet... and now I'm looking forward to making that post in the success section!!!!

Have a great day everyone. I probably won't be around much for the next few days because I'll be recovering. I just wanted to put this out there for now while I'm of sound mind. LOL!!

Diva - hope the procedure went well and you are on the road to feeling better. You will fit into those size 4 levis size 0 vanity sizes in no time!

My 12 skinny jeans from Levi's are starting to get lose - but NO WAY my skeleton would ever fit into a 4. You are a TINY and beautiful woman. WAY TO GO!

Haha!! You all are so amazing! Such a breath of fresh air for me this morning.

I'm sitting here with my cup of coffee and healing is going really good. Pain is not as bad as the first one, I think due to taking my pain medication this time (don't ask) and the areas completed aren't as sensitive.

Just wanted to give a quick check in that I'm a-ok. Day 2 is statistically the worst so if that's the case I'll be up and at em in no time at all.

:bolt:

I have a pair of Levi's size 6 jeans that fit, so I've also been wondering if they may be a bit vanity-sized LOL. But you will be in those 4s in no time, I'm sure. And I can't wait to see how the Lipo went!! Here's hoping the lack of killer pain stays the same for the next few days!! :biggrin:

Hello!! I got my new jeans today. Zappos is great. ;-) Aaaannnyyywwaayyyy... I took a few photos to share because I wanted to show the differences (not much) in "vanity sizing". You can see the Levi's and the NYDJ's are exactly the same size... yet the Levi's are 4's and the NYDJ's are 0's. In fact, I'm saying right now, I'll fit those 0's first. They are much more stretchy and have more leg room. LMAO!!!!

Ready, Set, GO!!! Like I said, I don't care how long this takes. I'm just going to keep doing what I know how to do and spot checking during my workouts. Could take 6 months, could take a year, I don't know.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
