It's crazy when someone you used to date has problems with you losing weight because they're worried about you finding someone better... I'm sure I'm not the only one going through this

It's a sign to give them what they wish for.

It's more common than you think. It is also why my non-surgery wife has lost weight right beside me the whole time. Although she was not anywhere near as big as I was, we get to share our victory together and there are no weird feelings that come along with having only one person in the relationship go through a dramatic change.

My husband is doing the same thing as Guru in training's wife. He's starting to walk a lot more now. It is awesome to have the extra support.

Any was there is a reason she's your ex, her not appreciating the weight loss just gives you another reason.

Yeah I didn't tell her until a month before because we're not together and I'm a Navy vet so she's so worried about how I looked 10 years ago just very annoying

I haven't gotten my sleeve yet (5/31) and my fiancé asks me if I'm still going to love him when I lose weight. To me, it's crazy, but I can understand the insecurity because it's something you hear about. What they don't understand is that majority of people who lose dramatic weight quickly still see themselves as heavy and that's not something that (sometimes) ever goes away.

But yeah, you're not the only one going through that haha.
