Upon Reaching Goal Weight



Recommended Posts

I can total relate to not being able to have my own style and just buy what fits. I always accepted it but now that I'm on the losing side, I'm totally ready! I want to buy stuff from a normal store or even Target something that I can wear and love not just accept.

Yes. I hope to buy from Old Navy. I also want to feel pretty in dresses rather than frumpy. Next year we are getting Target in Canada and I hope it will be an inexpensive place to buy clothes. I'm so tired of paying $50 for pants and $50 for a top

at plus size stores. I want to be able to pick where I shop and get a better deal.

I want to raid my moms closet. She had RNY 9 years ago and has the cutest clothes. She's between a size 10-12. I can't wait. Also to buy a cute bathing suit.

That's good. I hope we get the same products and deals when Target opens here. I heard the US has more option for plus sized stores. We basically have three stores owned by the same company ...if you need higher plus sized clothing.

I want to have a family picture taken that I actually put out on display! And I want to buy a pair of Tom's shoes. Tried a pair on and they look ridiculous with my fat legs and little feet.

I'm super excited to get updated family portraits as well :)

I can not wait to buy all the cute clothes that never fit anymore and have my own style... I've always only worn what fits which is always dresses! I haven't worn jeans in over a year because I hated how they looked on me.

Oh and have shoes that don't get ruined because I apparently lean on them a certain way that that ruins a certain portion of the shoe

Still trying to figure out what I want or what I want to do.

I'm not big on roller coasters ,new skinny jeans would be nice,

But I think what I would like to do is to take a second Honey Moon with my wife to Hawaii and be able to walk down the beach shirtless and not be ashamed of how I look.

after I lose 100 lbs...I want to go horseback riding. After 200 lbs I want to go to an amusement park that isn't Disney (Disney rides are what I call Fat People friendly) and ride all the roller coasters!

I can only buy clothes at 3 stores near my area... Lane Bryant, Avenue and Catherines... and I cant make purchases often because of the cost of the clothing! I can not afford $46 for a single shirt or $52 for one pair of pants! Its crazy!!!

      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.
