Recommended Posts

Hey All

Well i am ecstatic. I went into a surf shop as im doing alot of swimming and my bathers are way to big, i wanted some boardshort ones to cover my thighs up, they only had size 10 or 14 in ripcurl. I asked the lady if i can try the 14 on and she looked at me and then said yes . So i tried them on and they fit me:). I was over the moon as i cant even remember the last time i could fit in clothes from a normal shop. Im soooo happy:).

I really love my band:speechles

Woohoo. I"m on the hunt for some boardies too, I just dont think this will be the bikini summer, lol. I found some really nice chocolate brown Seafolly one's in DJ's last week, but the XL was um, tight, lol. I might buy them anyway, I'm sure I'll get into them by summer.

God love boardshorts!

I need to look online for a top though, there's just no stuffing these boobies into normal sizes, I need something underwired!

awwwe man thats great! i cant wait for the day I go to supre and something fits there! I'll be dancing around the store doing woop woop woop woop's like homer simpson on the floor ha ha

oh how i dream to wear a bikini top and board shorts to the beach, and be whistled at and not out of sarcasam either ha ha

and how i can go to target and buy the prettiest bra and knickers sets and feel like a girl..

and how sweet it would be to wear a halterneck dress with little strappy heels and a flower in my hair and be one of the hotties for a change... sipping on a fruity beverage and nice healthy glowing skin ha ha man am i ever getting carried away, i guess the excitement of it actually going to happen is unbeleiveable..

      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.
