Recommended Posts

I have a great man who loves my curves or flab, whatever we want to call it...he calls it curves. I was also big when we started dating. I have gained and lost several times. This time I was at my biggest and having health complications. I had my surgery a month ago and am

Down 30 lbs! The great thing is that I am now motivating my husband to diet and exercise!!! E doesn't have as much to lose as me but it is something we are now doing together. He knows I want healthy or happy with myself the way I was and supports me 100%! That's love and I am sure he will love me when I am happier and healthier too. Beauty is within whether yiu are bigger or smaller!

My fiance and I have been together 14 years.... And when we started dating I was 150lbs.... Before surgery I was 273.... Between that time I gained and lost weight like a yo-yo.... I would lose 40 lbs and then gain 50 back... Many times we discussed my weight... He is a very honest person and won't lie to me to make me happy, so it crushed me the day he told me he wasn't "attracted" to me anymore.... Not that he didn't love me, but he worried more about my health then enjoyed looking at me. It wasn't really until that day I realized how large I had gotten.

When I decided to look into lapband he was 100% behind me... He even helped me research it... Would look into success/ fail ratios, what you need to do before,during, and after surgery and weight loss... Before I even walked into the Dr's office for my first consultation, I knew exactly what I was getting into and was very excited!

now 2 months after my surgery and 30 lbs gone, I have more confidence, feel sexier.... And the best thing is every day he tells me how much he is loving my new body... I believe that people are attracted by looks at the beginning... But after a period of time people are attracted to personaliti, and the physical you is just an added bonus.

As long as you are happy in your new body, you will give off the sense that you ARE sexy, and confident.... Even If you don't have as many curves.... And your husband will feed off of your attitude.... IMO...

Good luck with everything!! Hope this helped...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
