I thought I would be embarrassed initially by comments on my weight loss, but it's actually awesome, I plan to keep the old scrubs and go to them whenever I lose my mind set, and I've kept all my promises, I even talked one of my wife's friends into having it, as I found out last night, she is going with my surgeon and I promised to be there to her Til after a few months out of surgery, ironically I wanted to keep my humility by giving and plan to continue in doing so........

I'm keeping one dress from my highest weight as a reminder.

@Blerdgirl: so it's not a bad idea to keep your biggest clothing??? Someone said I should have a goodbye party and burn it, but I keep thinking that if I can go back from time to time it will keep me grounded

You look great! Well done!

I dont think it is a bad thing at all to keep a pre-surgery item of clothing. I kept one pair of jeans. It is nice to try them on occasionally and see just how much difference the loss has made. Pictures work, but there is something so tangible and real to hold up those big pants and think that they used to fit... and remember how much we never want to go there again. Trying them on is a great way to realize the progress and stay motivated!

That's awesome! Way to go!!! I kept one outfit at my largest size and blank fit in one leg of my pants and can wear my shirt as a long baggy belted dress. I think one set is great then get rid of the rest!

Awesome job!! You look fantastic!! I also am going to keep my biggest pair of jeans as a reminder of what I never want to be again. It will help motivate me when I get discouraged.

Congratulations! Pictures such as yours are so inspirational. If you don't keep the scrubs, at least keep these photos as a reminder of how far you've come.

      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.
