Has anyone else felt they would only lose three sizes?

Is it just me? I am 401 lbs. and pre op with date scheduled. Deep down I feel like I will only lose a few sizes. Like go down from a 5x to a 3 or 2x. I am afraid that my clothing sizes will always have an x in them. Am I the only one that feels or has felt this way?
