spouse, boyfriend/girlfriend/family heavy??

[Pippa1703 32]

Both my mother and grandmother had gastric bands, my.nan is now underweight after losing over 10 stone. Unfortunately my mom got pneumonia after the op and had to have it removed , she's still easily 150lbs overweight. All the men in my family are 6 foot+ beanpoles. My husband is an ex professional athlete and fortunately, it looks like my boy is carrying the care free male torch! My husband doesn't really want me to go through with my sleeve op, but he's still supportive because he sees how unhappy i am

Yep!! I’m looking forward to being able to go with him in his bass boat again. My lack of balance as I’ve gotten heavy scares me trying to get in and out

mother and sisters have put on weight, lose well and keep the weight off for long periods. None of the males in my family have been overweight.

@Hop_Scotch

hey there Aussie - nice to hear from another country (do you have Outback ?)☺️

never fair about those males who have never been overweight.

Ex-boyfriends? hmmm - they don't count - that's why there called Ex🤣

My boyfriend is 6'2" and weights 180lbs. He eats only when he is hungry and does eat fast food. He works for FedEx so he is quite active. My boys are 21, and 23, daughter 9 and they are all skinny. I've always been health conscious but often fell off the wagon. My heavest is 260lbs and lowest 145lb

Ex H and children are marvels of physical forms. Funny my daughters have some of my physical structural features. But when I was overweight i never saw them.

New BF is fine - *maybe, maybe* slightly a little heavy for his frame but he thinks its more of a problem more than i do or a doctor would but idk. I support his efforts to lose or whatever the plan. So he likes to eat like me 😉 such a burden lifted

Funny to ponder on these things now.

Thank you Proudgrammy. I also meant to say that by boyfriend does not eat fast food.
