Totoro got a reaction from DevilAngela13 in A bit sad and worried
My husband is exactly the same as your mum. I really need to do this to feel healthy, he keeps telling me he loves me like I am and shouldn't feel fat shamed by everyone.
He says he's sad that I've been bullied into feeling so bad about myself that I feel I need to have drastic surgery.
I, however, have tried explaining that I'm not ashamed at all, I just want to feel comfortable and healthy and run around and swim with my two young boys.
He needs to lose a lot of weight too, BTW.

Totoro got a reaction from ProudGrammy in Getting info
Hi Tonya, I'm the same age and height as you, but I weigh 115 kg (254lb). I have not yet have the WLS, but have decided on the sleeve for a number of reasons :
1. I will still enjoy spicy foods, and a variety of foods without fear of them getting stuck or causing bad reflux
2. There are many long term complications of the band, including erosion, slippage etc.
3. I want something permanent, I need to change my lifestyle forever.
4. I really don't like the idea of a large foreign body inside me, and be able to feel the port under my skin is not appealing.
However, having said all that, I have a close friend who is very happy with the band and loves it. So it's very much an individual choice.
