I'm newly single, separated from my husband. We are waiting for the required 6 month waiting period in my state to make the divorce official.

I've been sleeved for almost 5 months and am down 75lbs.

I'm on my fitness pal, Wolfgirl78 if anyone wants to be friends.

Good luck to all you up and coming new sleevers!!!

Hey Group,

I am in a fresh relationship but it is difficult. I don't think its going to make it past tomorrow actually.. I am pre-sleeve and due to insurance changes, had to postpone my surgery date and pay for it myself.

It has been quite depressing and I know that is affecting my relationship. I was never really ashamed of my body but for some reason, I don't feel "good enough". If plans change or are cancelled, I immediately think that he found someone better (slimmer).

Anywhoo (my favorite non-existing word), my doors are always open if anyone wants to chat.

I just want to say thank you for to everyone. When i started this board i never imagined it would take off. Single fat guy attitude i suppose. Ladies i think you are all very good looking already, and no real man should be judging you by your size. I just wanted to say for all you new sleevers or future sleevers hang in there its worth it .. Yesterday i hit weighed in at 198.. I havent been that since 10th grade. I started at 299 in sept was down to 250 prior to my surgery on 2/28. It will be hard at times and you will wanna quit or reconsider but with every pound you drop or inch you lose comes a very good feeling. Btw still single if anyone was interested....

Still single??? Wow, I wouldn't imagine you'd stay on the market this long!

I'm a single mom of 3 boys.

In a rocky relationship, I'm quite sure he doesn't remember my surgery date and I'm not reminding him. Mother of a 3 yr old. It's nerve recking that I won't have a man there to hold my hand in this journey. Thank God for my family.

I'm extremely stress my date was today but due to sandy my date was moved to Thursday. I have not even had my surgery yet in the relationship I was inn has come to an end because of her option of what I'm doing. I feel like she is making me choose the surgery or her but what she doesn't understand is that I'm not choose surgery over her I'm choose to live, to have a better longer life. Have any of y'all experienced these issues.

single...solitary...alone...*cold, so cold* BAHAHA! (yes I laugh at myself all the time) I have always been single. I'm ok with it most of the time...and then another friend gets engaged....or married....or has a baby....and then I start to panic and think I'm gonna be alone FOREVER! They are dropping like flies around me! LOL. I don't think that WLS is a magic solution to what I call "singledom" but you can't really deny that when you look and feel more attractive others will be increasingly attracted to you as well!! btw I'm 25 from South Texas!

Well, I am officially single... While I am disappointed about the break-up, I am even more disappointed in the fact that as soon as I left, I made a bee-line into Mickey D's and ordered a meal when I wasn't really hungry.

Before I date again (and before my sleeve in Feb '13) I will be seeing a therapist.

After my big break up with my boyfriend and fiance of 7 years I had a real hard time. I ate anything and everything and just really hit rock bottom. Since then though I've gotten the surgery, lost 160 pounds, moved into my own new place, gotten a promotion, and rediscovered my confidence and self-esteem. Life is GREAT right now! And, of course, I definitely enjoy dating.

Single in Tennessee, 2 weeks out tomorrow. My romantic life in the past has been a train wreck to be honest due to my low self esteem but hoping that will change & I'll stop going out with Mr. Wrong.
