Hi There,
Just wanted to let everyone know that I am now in Qld, living with my daughter. So many problems back in NSW with my partner, re- having lapband surgery done. I think he is really scared because I am 50 years old and 127kilos. I know he loves me the way I am, and often tells me 'it is the person inside that counts' but I dislike myself so much. To get around with swollen ankles and sore knees is no fun. Perhaps also he is scared that all our meals will change as well as my personality.
I have much more of a choice up here, and made some enquiries today about lapband surgeons, and am pleased to say I now have an appointment to see a surgeon. Not sure if my partner will read this entry, so will keep the details a secret untill after I am banded.
I just pray this surgery will not break our relationship up, as I love my partner dearly.
Please wish me luck. Am I being selfish putting myself first? as I now feel guilty.
Love, Amanda :think
