Thanks! Again, I appreciate it. I've narrowed Mr personal circle of friends and cut out the negative ones. That being said between working, and being a mama of active school engaged kids, and starting school in a few weeks it doesn't leave much time for support groups, so I appreciate Abby friend who have actually gone through the journey too!

I totally understand! We all lead busy lives and if you can have someone to at least drop a note to for a little help its always helpful! I don't have time for the support groups either but this place has been a big help!

Exactly. I haven't been active much lately because my personal life is crazy since my husband hates the fact I had the surgery, which has been hard, but it my was my body, my choice and I let his fears keep me from getting wls years ago. I'm struggling with that aspect but as far as my surgery, it's been good. I'm getting in my Water, and trying to get my Protein in as much as I can, it's crazy before when I was stressed or depressed, I'd eat, now I don't like to. So I just have to deal and keep moving forward.

May I ask why he didn't want u to have surgery, othe than obvious it's a big risk? Is he overweight?

Yes, he is. He thinks I'll leave him, and won't find him attractive anymore. He keeps saying that 87% of WLS patients leave. I keep trying to tell him they must have had underlying issues in their relationships, or the people let the WLS go to their head. Either way. That's not me.
