I was really determined had my bfs support than it all changed... he said since the surgery is by choice i'm Takin the easy way out. I'm so depressed idk what to do or think I was happy about going through the process but he thinks I can do it the hard way instead of getting cut open

He may not be fond of the idea but he wants to take the time of just to go with me to see my doctor. One thing I can say is that he will not eat anything different from me. If I want to eat and be healthy he'll make me a salad or fish. I just don't feel comfortable working out with him. Usually I'll work or before he comes home and he'll work out when he gets home. I'm excited about the change I told him with or without him i'm doing this for me. He wasn't negative he just said ok and that he wants to talk to my doc. That's the first step and I know a doctor will make it easier for him to understand than I would.

Just want to know how all this works i'm still waiting on a call back from the surgeons. This insurance is driving me crazy

I am not the type to make excuses if u knew my life story maybe u would understand. we may not agree With certain things but overall this man has been there for me through almost everything. we've been together for almost 5 years have two kids and I've stayed at home the whole time. I know what my decision is hes not insecure. It may sound like he is but he's really not he just doesn't agree with any surgery. He's never gone through any surgery never broke a bone or ended up in a hospital. any surgery is scary I was skeptical in the beginning but I told him i'm going to go along with it and do it. He wasn't disappointed but he's coming with me to question my doctors and make sure. He just doesn't want me to turn to surgery if there's another way. A safer way that's all.

I know he's not insecure he's just worried I think he's afraid of losing me more than anything. He's a boxer/coach I think it's a conflict because were together which is why I don't want him training me. I just had my gallbladder removed 4/20 I was in allot of pain he was there took care of me etc He says he doesn't want me to go through unnecessary pain.

I would really hope he would come around. I'm not doing this for him i'm doing this for me and my two little ones I want to run with them go to theme parks and get on rides etc I just want to be comfortable in my own skin and not have to hide because i'm ashamed I really do hope he comes around if he truly loves me which I know he does I know he will. I HOPE...

Thank you, all I did was cry he apologized but as many times as I tried explaining it to him he just doesn't understand. I have to go on a monitored diet and exercise for about 6 to 8 months before I can get it my insurance covers it and my doctor already gave me a referral. He thinks i'm brain washed and if i'm dieting and exercising I don't need surgery, surgery is painful. why should I put myself through that.

I really don't know what's with him. for his height he is considered a little over weight but he constantly works out everyday he's under 170. He says he knows I can do it and surgery isn't always the answer. That's just for lazy people I don't think he fully understands. He believes if its by choice and its not my last option stated by a doctor I don't need it. I tried to explain to him i'm not happy im depressed and me getting this done just gives me a boost. it's not as bad as other surgeries. He said if I do this I do not have his support because i'm not trying or making an effort. I have been overweight as long as I can remember and i've struggled with it for a very long time I don't want to be around family and friends, i'm afraid of what they think. I feel disgusting. He says he can help me lose the weight with out me getting the surgery. In my heart I still want it but afraid to do it alone. I just wish he understood.

I was looking forward to getting the surgery than my doc told me I have to be on a strict and monitored diet for 8 months to a year before I can get the surgery. I'm a little discouraged....

Hi i'm 23 years old with a weight of 292 and a height of 5'3. I have always had an issue with my weight and well after having two kids I let myself go. I find it hard to stay motivated I get really lazy when it comes to working out I feel I need a partner. but sometimes no ones there. I use to work out with my bf and lost 7 pounds i'm one week but it stopped after my gallbladder surgery this past April. I want to lose weight just dint want to have to go through so many surgeries. I saw on you tube this woman that got an infection really bad and went through a series of surgeries. I'm just scared of surgery and terrified to have hanging skin... HELP!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK OR FEEL

Thank you all for your input I appreciate it. I decided to get it but its just not going to be that easy for me thanks to my insurance.

Its my insurance they're saying I have to met certain requirements before I can get it. They want to make sure I can live with the diet and I have to go in once a month to get weighed. This is a challenge.

Thank you
