Ashlee K 46 Posted June 7, 2013 Well I'm suppose to be feeling amazing right now the surgeon approved me and does not foresee any issues with the insurance but I feel broken right now and you guys are pretty much the only ones that might relate to how I'm feeling. First of all the boyfriend is totally against me doing this purely because of his own insecurities. Afraid I'm ganna thin up and leave him. We got into a big fight over it last night (same day I got my approval) than today is day one of all liquid and it's mentally killing me. I'm hungry I'm emotional I want chocolate than in top of it all I'm at work and people here are really getting under my skin. So all I really want to do is cry. I want to be happy and excited but I can't Sorry for being a Debbie downer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HatheryOnHerWay 603 Posted June 7, 2013 My hubby wasn't on-board at first either. He came around once he realized I wasn't going to take "no" for an answer. Stay strong and keep your head up---you're doing what's best for you, and that's what matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tab 7 Posted June 7, 2013 My husband wasn't on board either. But he does know my struggles with my weight . He also knew I wasn't very healthy, and at the end of the day he wants me to be around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElaineB 207 Posted June 7, 2013 Ashlee, it seems like your feelings are normal. You're taking control of your life and making huge changes and sacrifices. You are giving up an emotional crutch and are suffering through a liquid diet. Then, instead of getting the support you need right now, you are having to deal with your boyfriends issues. I say, take a deep breath and focus in on what you are doing and why. Ask for support from others. If you cant get it from those around you, you do have us. And maybe pamper yourself a little. You can't go out to eat, but you could get a pedicure. In a year this will be a memory and you will be looking hot. If your boyfriends not nice, you may have to trade him in:).

Harlemzheiress 22 Posted June 7, 2013 My boyfriend is totally against me having this surgery as well. He claims its because of the small percentage of death but I think it's because he's insecure. Little does he know I love him so much I will never leave his side big or thin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
