I used to think about the # on the scale, or the size, I realized looking back at photos that neither of those were good. I think its more of what fits with you mentally and physically.

Everybody has their own ideal size. What I used to think was ideal, wasn't. When I look at where my ideal weight according to BMI is, it really is right on.

Think a size 10 would be cool, but I'll take whatever size gets me off all these meds

I just dont want double digits anymore. So anything less than a 10. Also, anything that doesnt have "x" in front of it. Once I get to those mini-goals, then I will pick a size and set a new goal LOL

I agree! I don't want to be double digits anymore! I've never not been double digits.

When I was at my goal weight (before children) I was a 8/9, shooting for that same size :)

I honestly don't even remember being below a plus size. I would like to be a size 10. I'm tall, and I think that would be a good size for my body frame.I can't wait to be able to shop in normal stores! Plus size clothes are too expensive for this chica!

As low as possible without being sickly. I want a buffer if I gain back a few pounds.

I'm a size 22 right now, I'd love to be a 12. I was a 12 when I got married and very happy at that size. Anything smaller would be the cherry on top.

      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. 🤞
