Found My Husband Reaching To Hold My Hand In The Mall.....



Recommended Posts

I love my husband, and he is my best friend of 20 years, he has loved me thru all my problems with weight. He has been my best support. I have to admit, I'm starting to look hot, and we went to the mall last night, and he reached out and took my hand. I just looked at him, and he gave me that young man look, that won my heart years ago. We only held hands for a few minutes, and went on our way, but it was nice. Thanks sleeve for letting me relive the good ol days.

We truly become somebody new - even more on the inside than the outside.

I love your story.

I am a touch smaller that I was when I met my Hubby in 1999 - and a year later I was almost 7 dress sizes larger (long story) - I made him wait 3 years to marry me because I was afraid I couldn't lose the weight - and I didnt until now. We Celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary on the 24th.

He is going to be in Cypress and Israel for at least a month or so, very likely more. I hope to break my (one of many) stalls and see if I can be a size down when he gets home.

I don't think he has ever stopped "looking" at me, but again yes, it is a bit different now when he does :)

Great topic.. My hubby has always assured he loved me both before and after- and was very intimate all throuought but it is very difficult to accept compliments when you never got them before- regardless if they are genuine or not.. He looks a differnt way now and so do LOTS of other people- THat is nice but at the same time- it's hard to accept- THis for me willt ake the longest time...

Aww, my husband told me he loved me the way I was and that I didn't need to have the surgery. Now, that I had it he tells me that he's proud of me for doing what I wanted and he still thinks I didn't need the surgery :-) We all have a loving man by our side!! It's wonderful!

keepin it real ;)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
