Found love after your sleeve?



Recommended Posts

Looking for inspiration - did you find love post sleeve? Split up from husband almost 3 years ago after 30 years together (i was a child bride, ha ha) and have made no effort with the opposite sex - forgotten how to, lack of confidence, lots of reasons.

But even at this early stage, am now getting some male attention and it's all positive. So that gives me hope - but would love to hear your stories....

Thanks

I was sleeved on April 4th and down a total of 65 lbs. starting weight 303 current weight 238. I was single for the past 3.5 years due to low self esteem too!! I'm finally getting my sexy back, lol! I actually had a nice coffee date yesterday and was feeling good about myself. I too had no interest in dating either, but it's amazing how much more confidence I'm getting as the pounds are falling off! Luv my sleeve :) rock your sleeve and your confidence!!!

That's amazing, both the weight loss and the way your feelings have changed. I know that for someone to love me, I have to love myself - and I am starting to be believe I am worthy of that.

Thanks for sharing, hope the coffee date is the first of many - or maybe the start of something special :-)))))) Keep in touch, will let you know how things go at this end!

      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!

        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!!
