Will relationship go from bad to worse?



Recommended Posts

Abusers (emotional, physical or both) lacking control of their own lives, target people with low self-esteem to feed their need to feel power over another. As you lose weight and gain more self-confidence, he will feel he is losing control over you and the mental abuse will escalate. He will sabotage your journey at every turn fearing you may realize you have better options! What exactly is he bringing to "the table"? It appears you are completely supporting this man and providing a roof over his head for the meager price of cleaning and dinner on the table. A lazy man is bad enough but a lazy, abusive man is nothing more than a parasitic piece of trash. You deserve so much better.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight.ย It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey โค๏ธย Together, we got this!

      Hi๏ปฟย everyone! Iโ€™m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and Iโ€™m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. Iโ€™ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTokโ€™s, ect.. trying to prepare my๏ปฟย mind and what to expect so Iโ€™ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and e๏ปฟxcited. However, now that Iโ€™ve done everything & itโ€™s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc Iโ€™ve tried everything and I just donโ€™t feel like I can lose weight by myself. Iโ€™m tired of being overweight my entire life. Iโ€™m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I donโ€™t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. Iโ€™m scared of complications like Iโ€™m๏ปฟgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didnโ€™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 canโ€™t and donโ€™t possess the discipline. Iโ€™m also afraid I wonโ€™t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I donโ€™t know how to eat healthy really and donโ€™t enjoy healthyย food. I donโ€™t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!๏ปฟSomeone 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.๏ปฟ

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
