Hard to say because we are all shaped differently. I was a size 22/24 at 205 pounds. I am down a total of 50 pounds and my tops are medium or large but my pants are mostly size 16 petite. I have seen ladies that weigh 20 pounds more than me but are in smaller pants than me. I'm 5'1 and weigh 155.

I was at your weight, and I'd love to know what other men have lost that where this size also.. So far I am a little over 2 weeks out and at my peak I was 326 before pre-op diet. I am now at 289 and able to fit into size 40 jeans. I was just barely fitting into 42's before probably should have worn 44's.

My goal is 185 which is about where my brother sites who is the same height and looks like me.. He wears 32-34 jeans.

I was 260 and wore a size 46 or 48 pants. Five months, down 50 lbs and I now wear a size 40 (and they hang). Weigh in about 209 today.

I was approximately your weight and height on DOS (335 lb and 5'11"). Wore the same size clothing as well. I would say if you have a really high dedication to eat well and exercise, you could drop to 32/34 pants and m/l shirt size. Awesome don't you think? I like having so many more places where I can buy others now. I am currently a 34 pants and m/l shirt size at 9 months. I think my pants size will trim up a little more as my waist gets smaller. Maybe to a 32. Shirt size will probably remain m/l especially as I continue to strengthen my upper body. Good things are in store for you!

I was 375 at my heaviest and wore 52 pants and size 3x shirts. I am now 6 months post op and down to 266lbs. I am currently wearing size 42, but they are starting to feel a little baggy. I also wear a size 2x shirt, but can fit some 1x shirts as well. My initial goal is 225, but my ultimate goal is around 210. At that point, I think I will be around a 36 waist and large shirts. Good luck to you on your continued journey.

      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.
