if im being honest its definitely true for me. I had the same girl since high school show interest in me, and i would never allow her in close to me because i didnt feel i was good enough for her. (thats my own ****). i got the surgery and i finally had the confidence to take her out because of the surgery. and now we are dating and im happier then ever. but i would have never before because i didnt feel enough, even tho she constantly tells me shes not with me because of the weight loss. so yeah i had this surgery to get healthy, but god damn it i wanted to look good too.

thank you!!!

Raises hand and says Yes.... One of my main motivations was to look better. I was in a very long marriage and we would go a year with having sex 1-2x's. I thought, if only i could lose the weight he would find me more attractive and life would be great. So in 2009 I got banded, lost 89lbs (100 but to hard to maintain). Went from 232 to 143. But instead of getting better my marriage fell even more apart. He couldn't handle the attention i was getting. And to be honest, it was intoxicating.... i loved it. We divorced in 2017 after 26 years. Fast forward.... 2017, flu/stomach bug = slipped band. Fast forward Aug. 2019 173.5lbs..... Sleeve. Todays weight 144.4
Starting to feel sexy again. Sept. 2019 remarried and feeling great..... bring on 52 years old... i'm ready

lol!! i was waiting for someone to say that. yes the girl in the jeans is the one im seeing. hahaha
thank you though! i appreciate it

You look great and you both are an attractive couple! (I'm assuming you are seeing the girl in the jeans and not the lady with the lantern, right?😁

Had to click on just due to the topic.

I am single due to surgery and my success and the insecurities it brought with it (On his end). I was curious to see who all used dating sites as well. I am just not feeling the whole paying to have the headache of navigating the real ones and the games. No one has time for that.
The struggle is real....

I can't wait for the photos/videos 🙌

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

You're gonna love it! If you haven't already considered it, look into going AFF so you can enjoy the descent all on your own and take your time going down. Have fun and congratulations 😊

ive always had a dream of skydiving but i was always too heavy. You have to be 250 to be able to do it. This was my first goal and this morning i hit it. I should be taking the jump within the next few weeks. i cant wait!!!

Jake funny you mention this because its something I wanted to do as well and have it on my goals list. I am in NJ as well and done a bit of research on it.

As a former skydiver you are making an incorrect assumption that skydiving planes are "perfectly good planes"...most of us felt safer once we left the plane than when we were in it!🤣

What would make a grown man jump out of a perfectly good plane?
But congrads have fun - I will wait here on the ground

What an exciting NSV!
