....from the hubby

NON SCALE VICTORY....lol

 

It is a good feeling when you are in the middle of a simple conversation with your husband and he stops you to say....."wow, babe...you are really beautiful". :):) and of course I ask him where that came from and he say to me. "You know I think you are beautiful. But you can already see a difference in your self confidence and I really like it".

 

<INSERT HAPPY DANCE>

 

I am CRAZY IN LOVE with my husband. It's weird...5 years together and he still gives me butterflies.

 

I didn't realize how my weight gain had effected my relationship...because of how I felt about myself.....but it did. Everytime I turn around today I have Corey coming up behind me to steal kissed or hugs and to tell me how sexy or beautiful I am. The way he acts you would have thought I had already lost 100lbs instead of 25 to 30lbs. It is wonderful.... It truly reaffirms the fact that I made the right decision to get the surgery. He tells me everyday that he is so proud of me. I know I am a very lucky woman and I cannot thank God enough for such a special man in my life. He's not perfect (Lord knows he can make me mad at times) but he is perfect for me.

 

He likes to read my blogs and is always impressed with the support I receive from all of you ...... but I hope he knows that his support is amazing in itself.

 

THAT IS MY NON SCALE VICTORY SO FAR.....and I would say it's a pretty darn good one!

what a wonderful post! I can relate to this as well. My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 years and he tells me all the time that I'm happier now and how good I look. My self confidence has really been soaring and it makes for a better relationship!!

What a great NCV!!! My husband does this too. I am not yet banded and I feel fat and gross and I don't want to do anything when he comes up behind me and kises my neck. I can not wait to feel sexier!! Keep up the great work!!

I love your post! Brought tears to my eyes. In part for happiness for you! Also in part, for mourning what we can lose from being overweight. I know I've lost so many things over the years because of my weight and the effect it had on my self confidence. I am looking forward to getting that back more than anything. Go YOU!! :)
