Feeling pretty good- went shopping, Goodwill had 1/2 off everything!!! I bought some clothes that are only 1-2 sizes smaller than I am now. I just want something to sort of get started

I have a few clothes that are too small for me now, but the ultimate goal is that I will be fitting into them very soon! It's a huge motivator :-)

I just went shopping today and I'm down another size, trying to by from the clearance rack to save money. But i love being able to shop and not get so stressed about it.

I'm able to go shopping in my own closet since I have clothes sizes 8 up to 16!

It's like all these clothes are now in our grasp. I used to hate clothes shopping but it was cause I couldn't find anything... As we get thinner- the possibilities expand

I am 10 weeks out lost 48 pounds and am just now going from 20's to 18's - yes my 20s were too big - but some brands the 18 are still tight in the belly - I had a few things in 18s already - my first purchase in a real store (only purchase for clothing since surgery) was at Old Navy I bought some 18 kahki pants - but they are really kinda big - I just needed them for work - now I may be in a smaller size already - I will have to try some things from my closet again!!!

      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.
