Yesterday was what would have been my 10 yr anniversary. It was a long day. I actually volunteered to work on Sunday so my mind would be elsewhere. Yes I know, LAME! Working on Sundays isn't my idea of fun seeing as I already 7 days a week anyway. One thing however shadowed this day I wanted to forget. I am 3 pounds away from my goal. It has taken me a lifetime to reach this goal. I look in the mirror and I feel good. I smile. But I wish this moment could of been shared with the person I spent the last 10 yrs of my life with. We are now not even friends. She asked me to cancel her cell phone services and take her off my insurance. She is now forever gone and it hurts. I wish I didn't have to share my success story with this but it is what it is. I must now move on. I must now focus on the future. I hope to find peace of mind. Success with this surgery has given me hope. Maybe hope will lead me to my soul mate one day. I wish everyone success in their journey. It's now easy and life will throw you some major hurdles but the end result will bring you joy like no other. I am not a huge picture taker because I still have this small insecurity about pictures but I took a picture of myself last night and I did really for the first time in my entire life, feel sexy lol!! I know that may sound corny, feeling sexy and all, but when you've never had that feeling and then it hits you like a ton of bricks you take it. I don't care what other people think, I am loving myself for the first time and complimenting myself makes me feel good Ciao and a great evening to you all .. I'm ALMOST THERE!!! and YOU WILL TOO!!

You are TOTALLY sexy! Congrats on your success! Sorry your heart has been broken but I have a feeling you will meeting many women who will be interested in getting to know you. Take your time and enjoy the attention your new body and confidence will bring.

I'm sorry you have to Celebrate your amazing success at the same time as what would've been a huge life milestone. But as they say...onward & upward! My relationship has been shaky since being sleeved, so I can relate. Hang in there! Life is calling!!!

Thank you very much for the compliment :-) You're quite attractive as well!!

Wow!! You are looking good. Be proud of yourself and enjoy your success. I know that more success is coming your way. I know your heart is broken - but sometimes it can be for the best.

Lookin' good, my friend! You have no reason to feel anything BUT sexy! And guess what, the right woman is out there who will appreciate you as you are and as you will be in the future. You just need to get out there and find her!

Go, you!

O wow you're so sweet lol!! Thanks for the compliment and with sweetness like yours, you're husband is one lucky man. Hopefully one day I find the one I supposed to grow old with :-)

Looking real good my friend!

Looking real good my friend!

Thank you doll

Looking real good my friend!

And the right girl is out there! I promise at some point in the future you will want to thank your ex for letting you go so you can find the RIGHT one.

I know I've felt like thanking my ex numerous times for dumping me so I was free to find the love of my life

I wish you all the luck in the world!! Do you go to any support groups? Maybe some single

Ladies in the crowd there that would like someone that knows what they have been through?? Just a thought! I hope you start feeling better soon. Your girl was probably jealous of all the attention you were getting and feeling insecure about herself??

Wow! I have a feeling you'll have no problem finding someone!!
