Marriage & Lap Band Results



Recommended Posts

I have a great man who loves my curves or flab, whatever we want to call it...he calls it curves. I was also big when we started dating. I have gained and lost several times. This time I was at my biggest and having health complications. I had my surgery a month ago and am

Down 30 lbs! The great thing is that I am now motivating my husband to diet and exercise!!! E doesn't have as much to lose as me but it is something we are now doing together. He knows I want healthy or happy with myself the way I was and supports me 100%! That's love and I am sure he will love me when I am happier and healthier too. Beauty is within whether yiu are bigger or smaller!

My fiance and I have been together 14 years.... And when we started dating I was 150lbs.... Before surgery I was 273.... Between that time I gained and lost weight like a yo-yo.... I would lose 40 lbs and then gain 50 back... Many times we discussed my weight... He is a very honest person and won't lie to me to make me happy, so it crushed me the day he told me he wasn't "attracted" to me anymore.... Not that he didn't love me, but he worried more about my health then enjoyed looking at me. It wasn't really until that day I realized how large I had gotten.

When I decided to look into lapband he was 100% behind me... He even helped me research it... Would look into success/ fail ratios, what you need to do before,during, and after surgery and weight loss... Before I even walked into the Dr's office for my first consultation, I knew exactly what I was getting into and was very excited!

now 2 months after my surgery and 30 lbs gone, I have more confidence, feel sexier.... And the best thing is every day he tells me how much he is loving my new body... I believe that people are attracted by looks at the beginning... But after a period of time people are attracted to personaliti, and the physical you is just an added bonus.

As long as you are happy in your new body, you will give off the sense that you ARE sexy, and confident.... Even If you don't have as many curves.... And your husband will feed off of your attitude.... IMO...

Good luck with everything!! Hope this helped...

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
