Did some shopping today and bought a shirt - size "large" and a 2 pairs of scrub pants size "large". I haven't worn a large anything without some x's in front of it for many years! Made my day.

I also did some shopping this weekend and bought larges as well. I actually was able to fit into a couple of mediums but only because the brand ran big but I dont care, I did a dance right there in front of everyone lol. Congrats! I know what an awesome feeling it is.

whereas us more "full figured" ;) people get thrilled with large :D

You always make me smile big. I was dancin' my littler butt off for sure. I could barely contain my giggle when I had to ask the saleslady for a medium.

I dont care if people looked at me funny for dancing, they used to stare at me for being fat lol.

Thanks for the sweet compliments.

      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.
