Why is it that the one day that you look and feel your absolute worse, that is the day that you see that FINE :tt1: specimen of a man that you used to date? I admit that I would never want a lifetime relationship with him, but OMG this man is awesome!:wink2: I was no where near my size now when we dated. I was petite with curves then. Now I am a cow with clothes. Such is the story of my life.:smile:

This is the case for so me too, except I don't care to see anyone that knew me "when". I don't care if I am dressed up or tore up from the floor up! But wait til I get my sexy back! I am gonna be all over the place!

Most of the people that knew me then, don't recognize me now. The people that know me now, have only known me fat. That is going to be odd since I will no longer be the FAT coworker or friend. I wonder how that is going to change things.

My friend told me that some people will not treat you the same after you lose the weight and won't be the fat friend anymore. She also told me that the ones that are not your true friends you might lose. I was like if they weren't my true friends, then i don't need them anyway. why would someone want you fat and unhealthy and not be happy for me when I'm doing better for myself. Don't worry about it...be strong and move on with the new sexier you:cool:

I've been told the same thing. I can only say it will be their loss. Not mine.:thumbdown:

A girlfriend of mine lost 100 pounds. In the process she met a wonderful man and got married. I was ecstatic for her and was a bridesmaid. Another friend of hers (not of mine) TOTALLY ended all communication with her. That was nine years ago. They don't speak to this day. It reinforces the old adage that misery does love company. Once your not miserable anymore, those old miserable friends will drop by the wayside.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
