I started out at Size 28/30 bottoms and 4-5 XL tops. I am wearing about 24/26 bottoms now and 2XL tops. I would love to be a size 8/10. That would be my goal and dream size! I honestly never remember being that size! I was probably in early Middle school! <_<

I started at 18/20 pants and xl-2x tops. I want to see 4/6 pants and medium to small shirts. I don't know how realistic those numbers really are. I was 8 and medium in high school, but sizing has changed. Also, three kids later, my hips are not the tiny hips of the prekid years. Then again, my gift to myself, well more to my husband LOL, after this is all said and done and I can actually get off 120lbs, mama's getting fake boobies! I'm down 20lbs so far, so only 100 to go! LOL D cups are going to be the only reason I ever want to wear xl shirts again LOL

What size are you now and what is your dream size.and your realistic goal size?

I want to be 140 lbs, whatever size that may be. I have 50 lbs. to go. I'm wearing some 12's now. I still feel huge and I've lost 70 lbs. I hope I can make it.

I'm 24/26 pants 2x-3x tops. I'm still preop so it is hard to imagine smaller sizes. My BFF told me she had a dream that we were shopping and I was a size 8. That would be awesome.

My shoes too :( last winter surgery could not have been farther from my brain/thoughts. I bought $130 big girl lol thigh boots! Fully loved them with all my heart, but pulled them out and my entire foot slips in and out without opening the zipper lol bitter/sweet moment of offering them to a family member who greatly admired them.

.::SurgeryDate 7/25/12::.

      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.
