I was wondering if my expectations are too high for this surgery...

I am still pre op and was wondering if it is possible to get to the weight that I want to. My sister is very small wears size 3-5's and she has some clothes that I have confisacted in hopes that sometime down the road I will be able to fit into these clothes. I am 5'3 and weigh 239. I have never been small, the lowesst size I have ever been in was size 12's and I weighed 165 when I was wearing those. I am doing this for my health and if I can just feel better I will be extremely happy but this would be the ultimate dream of mine to be able to take my sister's hand me downs. She has great taste in clothes and rarely wears anything long enough to wear it out which is a plus when you have three kids and a hubby to keep in clothes. Please any experiances with size goals is greatly appreciated.
