NOT EVERYONE IS GOING TO BE HAPPY FOR YOU. THIS INCLUDES THOSE WE LOVE. SOMETIMES, OUTSIDE SUPPORT CAN BE MORE SUPPORTIVE. PEOPLE (INCLUDING LOVE ONE'S) BECOME JEALOUS, THIS HAS MUCH TO DO WITH CONTROL ISSUES.

. YOU ARE NO LONGER SOMEONE TO PICK ON, TALK ABOUT BEHIND YOUR BACK, DEGRADE, AND HUMILIATE.

. YOU ARE NOW JUST AS CONFIDENT AS THEY ARE

. YOU NO LONGER MAKE OTHER PEOPLE SHINE, BECAUSE NOW YOU OUT SHINE THEM

. YOU ARE MORE OUTGOING, HAVE I NTERESTS IN HEALTHY LIVING ETC.

I'm starting therapy this week, to begin mentally preparing myself for this change....I've been overweight for over 25 years...I see that I am still having issues even in pre-op....I'm having a hard time watching what I eat, because I have this thought playing in the back of my head that I will never get to try this and that again....

Needless to say, I am looking forward to the session....

I have been seeing a therapist and it helps--also, weirdly, that fact that I live someplace fairly new with not many friends helps. Few of these people knew me "before" so they don't see me as an "after"--they are just meeting the new me! That gives me a lot more confidence.

I second that...wonderful post.

I already know that I have "friends" that are happy to see me stuffing my face... and I already wonder what will happen when those friends see the new me??????

I too feel lucky that we just moved to a new town, so many new people only know the "now" me... I have a really good friend who is trying hard to wish me well as she continues her struggle to lose weight the old fashioned way.. On the whole I feel lucky, but am very aware that the sabatuers can pop up at any time!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
