The other night my boyfriend and I were cuddling on the couch and he had his head on my chest. Out of nowhere he said "you must be in a good shape." I said "HUH?" He repeated himself. I still didn't know what he meant but I never thought I'd hear those words in my life! He said "your heart rate is ___. That's really healthy." (I don't remember what it was exactly.) Yes, he's a nerd. But he's also a cardiology nurse.

He knows I've lost weight but not about the VSG. I'm five months post-op and I've known him for less than 3. I keep saying I'm going to tell him but I always chicken out when I'm with him. I've lost 130 and still have probably 90 pounds to lose but after 28+ years of being obese I NEVER expected to hear myself described as "in good shape." However, I have noticed a decrease in my heart rate. I check it before, during and after a work out.

I love the NSVs!!! There are so many you anticipate and look forward to and yet still so many you can't even imagine. I hope VSG has positively impacted your life as much as it has mine!

Congratulations on your NSV and for 130 pound weight loss! Amazing results so far! Good luck on your journey.

Awesome NSV! So cute.

Don't agonize over when the right time to tell him might be. This will come naturally. Honey, he is going to notice that you are losing weight. Eventually he might even see your scars. Two plus two = WLS If he is the man you think he is, he will only be happy that you took charge of your own health.

Thanks for making me smile tonight!

ditto for iegal.......

He probably alreadys suspects it, especially when you eat with him....... CONGRATS!

That is absolutely fantastic!!!! Congrats to you. I love to hear stories like this. A wonderful NSV!

Yeah, I'm kinda thinking he knows by now. He's seen me naked plenty so I'm sure he's noticed the scars. He hasn't noticed too much about my eating but I haven't been as good around him though. I've lost 30 pounds since I've known him. AND, being a nurse, I'm sure he would suspect it more than most!
