Recommended Posts

I've yet to meet any. I'm just saying. Lol. And it's not like I'm not out and about either.

I can understand. Meeting the right person isn't easy from either side of the aisle.

I live in houston <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> yea I totally understand I've struggled with dating since getting to goal as well

Houston here too, just sleeved 8/20. I thought being in a relationship on top of all this would be too much. Want to focus on the weight loss but with weddings, family events, holidays on there way I'm dreading the when are you going to settle down questions. I feel like single and 32 is just not ok for some peeps. I still feel so young still.

My family stopped asking those questions when I told them I would settle down when I stop traveling and I have no plans to stop any time soon.

I've traveled all over the USA and a couple different countries! but I still have many places to see!

I live in California. I'm debating on Italy, Australia and Fiji next year... So for sure one of them it's just going to depend but Australia may win because I have friends in Melbourne and Brisbane so no hotel cost! But I do want to go back to Greece and conquer the 3 mile incline of steps! I only made it half way last time.

Where do you want to go?

If you decide on Italy, and you are interested in going on a tour to Tuscany and Umbria, let me know. A group of us are going July 19th for about 12 days. It's a really diverse group — so far, there are two straight couples, one gay couple, and three straight single girls. Most of the group doesn't know each other. We just started putting the trip together two days ago, so I'm sure we will have several more folks join us. You can reserve a place for $300, but the balance doesn't have to be paid until mid-May. If its something that you're the least bit interested in, just let me know, and I'll send you the website to check out.

I've spent a lot of time in Europe, but I'm really excited about being there in a completely different body. I hope I'm at a point where the walking and steps don't bother me like they have in the past.

Still no luck? Why do you think you're still single?

For me, it's partly by choice. I turn down a lot if dates due to my schedule. I think I'm ready to get back out there. Now though! I've noticed that as the weight comes off, the happier and more confident I am. I seem to draw people to me now instead of pushing them away.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
