Death or Divorce



Recommended Posts

I travel often for my job, and now I am starting to visit clients that I met before, but haven't seen me since the surgery. I visited one of those last week.

When I entered the guy's office, he looked at me kind of surprised, then his face turned a little sad. He looked me in the eye and quietly said, "Death or divorce?"

Confused, I asked him what was he talking about.

He said the only time any male friends of his lost this much weight, it was because they were "trolling for new fish". Therefore, his assumption is was I was baiting the hook with some new meat.

I hadn't laughed so hard in a while......

Terrific it is good to get noticed. In my case I have never come across your explanation

Normally they ask me if I am sick or dying.

Love it.... the first time i lost weight was for a divorce from my 1st husband... 35lbs in three months.

At first i told only my husband and kids about LB. It was so hard keeping it from my mom and her sisters (we are very close), one day she said, Chris are you ok, or you sick and not telling me.... i said No why?.... because you have lost so much weight... im worried. So i broke down and told her. Then she was pissed i didn't tell her sooner.... Mom's :D got to love um

so i understand the Death or Divorce.... great laugh.

That's better than having people talk behind your back thinking you are terminally ill with cancer or something....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
