I went to the beach today in a bathing suit and had a wonderful time. I focused on me and didn't worry about my size.

Oh and my bathing suit is falling off of me. I ordered one from landsend in a size 14 and hope it gets here soon!

I'm in a 14 bottom, but a 20 top.....must get rid of boobs!

Cleaned out my closet. 8 full size garbage bags to my sister and mom. 3 more to go to goodwill. My husband laughed and said no more hunting for hangers! More to go in about a month!

I had three big lawn garbage bags full!! As soon as I get where I want to be I'm going to have fun filling it back up!!

Went to the Water park today and I didn't feel like the biggest person there! I even went down 2 slides, though I don't think I'll be doing THAT again LOL...I'll stick with the wave pool and the lazy river.

Yesterday was dress down day at work. The jeans I've been wearing were getting too baggy so I tried on everything in my jeans drawer. Most of them were two baggy! Only two fit - and I hadn't been able to fit in those for three years! :-)

I've been bringing down smaller and smaller clothes from my attic. I've already gotten rid of bunches of jeans and slacks, some without even getting a chance to wear them. I have clothes down to sz14 - if I get lower than that I'm going to have to make my husband do a few side jobs so I can go shopping! :-)

The future is looking bright for the first time in years...

      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.
