Yeah I'm a size 10 but when I was thinner I was a size 8 and am hoping they keep getting smaller so I don't have any difficulty finding my size.

My knee problems prevent me from being on top for more than 5 mins.:/

I absolutely LOVE everyone's answers.

Mine would be:

•I live in NYC and commute by train, it would be nice to be able to fit in a single seat rather than 1 1/2 or 2 seats.

• Being able to tie my shoelaces without feeling like I'm about to pass out.

•Being able to dance without feeling like everyone is going "Hey look at that fatty dancing over there."

• Being able to put on pantyhose with it tearing from my thighs being so huge.

• Being able to shop with my mom, friends, etc without having to stop at the "plus" side (usually hidden in a dark corner) because nothing fits in the "normal" side.

• Being able to meet up with old HS & elementary school friends without them thinking "Damn, she put on some weight"

• Not feeling like the one person everyone points at descreetly while in social situations

I JUST WANT TO BE ABLE TO BE HEALTHY AND HAPPY!

Actually being the weight listed on my drivers license!

Haha I have to laugh because I just had to get mine reprinted and was annoyed cause they would not do a new License and now I weigh 25 or more pounds less than my license (which was at least 10 pounds less than my actual weight). What an awesome feeling and way more to lose, and next year when it is expires it will be a whole lot less of me to have a picture of and I can be honest about my weight! wooohoo.

These are all so great. Ive laughed so hard.

I will be glad when I can get up without my knees popping. Raid my mom's clothes who RNY 9 years ago this month. Not having people say you have such a pretty face. Dating. Not have people ask you can you eat all that.

      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.
