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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
