I just wanted to talk about the way i feel about my weight and body since my weight loss surgery... To start off with I can remember the anxious feeling of going to weddings, gatherings and just getting out "there" being bigger and bigger every year. What I've notice now is that I just don't care anymore. Even though I am still in the "obese" weight category..just knowing that I am heading back to a healthy weight has erased all the anxiety and lack of confidence I had before. It feels so nice! And I am teaching myself to love ME! for who I am and for how I look...Imperfections and All!! Trying to be an example to my Beautiful daughters and Beautiful sons...Be happy with who you are because when it is all said and done we just that...ME/ME YOU/YOU be happy and love life!!! :thumbup: Good luck to all!!

I agree with you about the confidence thing. I'm not so afraid to go places where people will say "Oh God, she is even fatter than last year/month/time we saw her". They may not say I look good, or even notice I've LOST weight, but I don't pay attention to that as much as I used to.

I love it! -and boy can I relate, I would get sick to my stomach thinking about attending an event, especially if it involved people I haven't seen in years. I've had several experiences where I see people (including family members) after I've gained weight and the FIRST thing out there mouth was "Wow, you got fat!", "What have you been doing besides getting fat?" or "I didn't recognize you because you got so fat!" I think I'm always in so much shock that they would be so rude that the anger and smart response don't come to me until they're gone! Lol! I say all that to say that it is wonderful that you are gaining confidence and setting a great example for your children by living your life!
