Do they shrink or become pancakes

Speaking just for myself, I started at a huge 42F and I am now at a 38DD and the have shrunk/firmed nicely.

Thats awesome but I feel like a failure noe that the scale has halted! I only have 25 lbs to go.

Think about what you are saying. You feel like a failure - even though you have lost a lot of weight. Not sure how much but try turning your thinking around. The scale will move again, but the closer we are to goal the slower the weight loss.

I bought this awesome pair of pants 6 months ago from J. Crew making them my 'goal' pants since I had never been able to fit anything from that store. They have been in the back of the closet where I forgot about them. Found them and tried them on last night...loose!!!!!!!

Can you exchange them for something smaller? I've been returning things I bought months ago that still have tags on them (no receipt returns get store credit) and then having fun shopping for nice things that fit or even buying smaller sizes (because I KNOW I'll get there). :-)

Yesterday I went to the fish market to pick up snow crabs, on my way back home with my daughter she saw a friend of hers who use to come to the house like all the time. I had not notice her friend because as we were walking I was answering a text on my phone. My daughter says mom look at rosemary, I turn to look at her friend with her mouth open and staring at me. She tells my daughter omg that's not your mom, my daughter says yes it is she is like OMG and jumps up and hugs me and says she couldn't even recognize me...at that moment I felt on top of the world...and while we were walking away she texted my daughter to say omg you mom looks hot :) I wanted to cry was so happy to hear ands see my daughters friend.

Today I actually fit into all the 14's I tried on! I didn't buy any of them because why would I if they're going to be too big in a month. While shopping I tried on some 12's and I got into them, too! Of course I looked like an over stuffed sausage but I DID get into them. So that's what I bought - two pair of slacks, sz12. I bet I'll be wearing them by Thanksgiving! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

I have not been a sz12 since 1985! Picture me, grinning from ear to ear! :-)

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
