Thank you so much ladies. I have to say that since I made this decision I have not been able to keep much down because of the butterflies in the tummy. I want to get so excited and dream of the "after" life but, I just can't until the surgery day is here.
I did have a strange situation come up after I discussed this with my husband though. He's afraid that if I'm thin again I won't love him anymore. Which is so untrue I can't even put it into words. He hasn't slept and even though I tell him that I loved him at 80lbs when we met and married and I love him more today at 209 and the fact that he thinks I am the most beautiful woman that ever took a breath. He's still worried that I'll leave him once other guys start looking at me. I've told him over and over again that he's it for me. He's been the one since we met when I was 17 but, he's still worried. Did anyone else go through this? If so how did you deal with it?
Thank you so much for all of the encouragement and support. I feel like I'm home here.
