My big goal was to get into Lululemon workout wear. About a month ago I made it into the leggings. I have several tops, and they fit, but I like my tops big to cover my tummy.

I also like going to White House Black Market, and the Loft. I'm also enjoying Michael Kors and Ralph Lauren in the misses sizes.

Lululemon is one of those stores I will NEVER shop at because of their corporate attitude toward people they think are less than worthy to wear their overpriced clothes. I have read nothing good about them.

I can't wait to wear a cute dress again, no matter where it comes from. I haven't worn a dress that doesn't come to my ankles in 12 years.

I have to wear suits for my job several months out of the year. I want to be able to shop in the normal men's section. I want to be able to buy cool t-shirts to wear on vacation and while fishing. I want to shop and be able to buy something that catches my eye off the rack and not have to put it back because it isn't a 5xl.

I'm not at goal yet, but I always wanted to shop in Victoria's Secret, got that around Thanksgiving. Gap was another wish, bought one thing there and lost interest. I've browsed in the limited, express and forever 21, just haven't bought anything in there yet.

I really want to go to a boutique type store (not a chain) and be able to buy something. Just haven't been to one yet

This will probably sound silly but my dream store was Target. They have such cute things! And they're cheap! I can now shop there and I love it.

I also really like H&M. I only have two tops from there but they're both my faves and they were both wicked cheap.

Clearly I love cheap things. I'd been so used to paying out the wazoo at stores like Torrid and Lane Bryant. It's so nice to be able to get a cute top for $10!

I've always loved JJill. looking forward to looking better in their clothes. but the truth is I am looking forward to making my own clothes again. I used to - but when I got heavy and I was always trying to loose it didn't seem right to take all that time to make something in a size I wasn't planning to stay at. not to mention I like high quality fabric, so it's not cheap.

When I get down to a size I think I'll be in a while, I am going to make dresses and skirts and pants for myself. I can't wait!

White House, Black Market has always had clothes that I think are beautiful, but I've never even walked into the store.

And.. Modcloth. I know they sell plus sizes, but I'm so afraid to try them because the styles don't work with my body type. But when I'm smaller? I will rock every single one of their dresses.

my daughters love modcloth! they have a dress I am planning to buy when it goes on sale, trying to decide what should be my "goal" size. maybe 10. not sure!

Love Zara's, banana republic and gap. Also designer outlet stores.

It feels good to shop in those stores, even though everything doesn't look good on me,lol.

I still have 20-25 pounds to go, hoping then I could fit more things at Zara's.

I just love that store.

I love Modcloth! Be careful though, the sizes run VERY small if you are used to US sizes. When I was a size 18, I had to order 4x.

      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
