Have Your Relationships Changed?



Recommended Posts

My boyfriend of 17 yr paid for the surgery in Mexico including the airfare - the week before we left he started up a cyber affair with a married nasty chick & while I was in the hospital he was at the Marriott sending nude pics of himself. Needless to say we are no longer together & I got this great new body & she is draining him of his money - divorce' date=' apartment, furniture, etc. Is so funny cause it's his loss & now she's way bigger than me. lol.[/quote']

I'm sorry that he was such a jerk (to be completely PG) BUT they say living well is the best revenge. So, keep living well! ;)

I am doing better than I've been in years. Figured out I was eating out of depression with him around. Now that he's gone I'm looking good, feeling good, & no negativity in my household! lol. I like to remind him that my new bf loves that he paid for it - I don't have a bf but he doesn't need to know that. ha ha ha

Actually he was & he still texts & ask me about how things are going but now I just tell him it isn't his business any longer. If he hadn't cheated he could be here in person seeing how things were progressing. ha.

I'd be lying if I said I'm not worried about my relationship with my husband after weight loss. He's not supportive of my choice to get WLS' date=' he doesn't want to even know when I get it done. Ive been with him for 10 years and have 3 kids. I'm scared that weight loss will give me the confidence that I've lacked and that I'll stop putting up with his crap. He's not horrible, but I do feel like I put up with far more then what most women put up with.[/quote']

I feel ya! I've gained the confidence not to take no more crap also and will be divorced in a few months! I now know my worth! Bless your heart!

My relationships improved for the most part. The fact that I don't feel so badly about myself has really helped. My husband and I have been separated since well before surgery, but we are doing amazingly well. I did lose one friend who turned out to be a real jerk - despite the fact that he is very trim and it is a priority for him, he tried to make it very hard for me to make good choices after surgery.

I have found that I would like to find more like minded people - fitness and health folks. I'm not great at meeting new people though and live in a smaller town... I'm sure it will happen with time.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
