I have had dressing room anxiety for years. I have left crying or left and cried all the way home. I was in need of course of new capris today so I had to go shop. I grabbed some 12s I always grab bigger sizes and go down bad habit. Way big. I grabbed 9/10 which I am now in. Kinda big. I put on a pair of 7/8's. Fit perfect!!!!! I cried in the dressing room once more. Not meltdown tears but this time tears of joy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been a little discouraged because I had a few rough weeks of cheating and being hurried. I think I am able to get back in track now.

Don't give up!!!!!!

Sleeved Nov 5th 226lbs

April 21 160.0 lbs!!!!

Congratulations to you!!! I love shopping for clothes and can't wait until I seriously have to go shopping for new ones. I purchased some comfy clothes as suggested pre-surgery, but I can't wait to get some new ones. Keep up the good work and congratulations again!

That is awesome!!!! You almost made me cry reading it! I totally know the feeling of not wanting to try on clothes. I got so bad that my husband started buying stuff for me and bringing it home because he wanted me to have new clothes but I never wantes to shop. Congratulations!!!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
