Guess who's got a date??????



Recommended Posts

Ok, so I have been divorced for almost 7 years and I finally have a date on Thursday!!! Ok, so it is a lunch date, but still!!!

I met him at Hurricane Harbour (water park) and have been casually talking to him since May. He works there as a security guard on the weekends and has a full time job during the week.

The funny thing is that everytime he has seen me I have been in my bathing suit with a coverup on and he STILL asked me out...LOL!!!!!!

I had to brag...I am not really nervous cause I feel as if I know him. He searched for me Sunday at Hurricane Harbour and sat by me while I was laying out. We got to talking and he told me he had Gastric Bypass just over a year ago. He looks great now!! He was 430 pounds. I bet he has lost about 200 of that in a year.

Ok, I will stop gushing..LOL! I will fill you in after the date!!

That is wonderful, and to have something in common like that. It is very hard to find someone that will understand you... Before AND After! Good Luck!

I'm excited for you! Getting back out there is hard, so I'm glad that you feel like you know him already. I'm also glad that he is an FF (former fatty) because you can both be supportive of one another! Have fun!!!

Thanks all!!! Herman and I had a great time at lunch. He is such a sweetheart. We met for lunch at TGIF, but he know what kind of car I drive. We talked and talked and laughed and laughed. He kept telling me how beautiful I am..Wow, it has been a very long time since I have heard that!!

I got back to work and he has already called me to make a date for Sunday to go to the movies.

Tina, no, he has always been wearing shorts and a t-shirt with a baseball cap at Hurrican Harbour. Rats!!! LOL!!

I am just pumped!!!!!! I also had our Association Rep come by to see me right before lunch to help with an insurance problem I have had. Bill has not seen me since the surgery. He kept saying, "Wow!! You look amazing! If I wan't married, I would be all over you!" What a sweetie!

Ok gotta run, receptionist went home sick and things are going crazy!!

Thanks everyone for the support

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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. 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 ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’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 can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone 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.

        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
