Today I went through some old clothes that use to be too small and now they are either too big or fit perfectly! It was very exciting!

My dad was very nervous about me having the surgery. Today he was having a senior moment calling for me in the other room and couldn't remember my name at first...and called me skinny Minnie instead... Made me smile.

It got cool today....I tried on every pair of pants I could find....they all fell off me! I finally found a pair of size 14 jeans that fit. Got my hair done Friday and went to a meeting today and got a " damn, you fine"....wow..haven't felt that good in a long time. I was also told I look like my sister, the size 8 one! When I was a size 8 , people knew we were sisters, but it hasn't happened in 13 years ! I'm doing this for my health, but the outward physical perks sure are nice!

I was able to fulfill one wish. For years I have always wanted a Victoria Secret bra. They are just so beautiful. I ordered one a few weeks ago and it fit like it was made just for me! I have since ordered 5 more! Love it!

A few years ago I went to the boardwalk and tried going on one of the rides but to my disappointment I was too big it could not close. I went last weekend and fit fine with extra room! It's the little things that make you happy :)

      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.
