CristyRNY, check out my post "Got naked, nobody died of shame".... Might give you hope!!!

You're not the only one on the site to have experienced this lack of confidence, but many are overcoming it. I am 8 months out, I was where you are (although I am way older) but my sleeve has transformed me and my life beyond recognition. To the extent I got naked last weekend for the first time in years with some I have lusted over for years and can t believe it .... Hence, my post!

Don't lose hope, you are just at the beginning ....

Thank goodness I'm married. Christy....I can only imagine. I think in time it will get much easier. It will definitely take some trial and error....some testing of the waters.....and some grit and courage. But don't hold yourself back. Enjoy the new life.

Jam out with your clam out girl. I have learned that if someone can't accept me at my worst then they sure as hell don't deserve me at my best!!

Your confidence comes with time and self appreciation and love.

        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!!
