Do you have some New Relationships after WLS??

 I was just thinking of ppl that don't really pay you much mind when your overweight!  Do they change?  The ones that make you feel invisible???   I really would rather them to act the same way because I don't think I'll feel like being all that nice!! 

So... I haven't really had that experience.  I tend to not ever feel invisible :)

However, my friend had the RNY last year, and has went from 230+ to 135.  She often felt invisible.  For example, her grandma-in-law NEVER spoke to her before.  Completely ignored her.  However, after all of her weightloss, the GIL now talks to her at family gatherings...  It completly p*sses my friend off.  It's like she was invisible before, but now at 100+ lbs lighter, she isn't invisible anymore.  So weird.  So rude.

 All of my friends have been supportive and happy for me. My brother and sister in law "don't believe in elective surgery", so they haven't said a single thing to me. Not really surprising, seeing as I never had a good relationship with them to begin with. No loss LOL. My boyfriend's mother is judgmental of me that I did it, but I don't take it too seriously because she is legitimately insane. Hates everyone including her children. Yikes.

To be honest I have never felt invisible, but that's my open and outgoing personality at any weight.  No one can make you feel any one particular way without YOUR consent to be in that position.

Now for those who were in that type of position I'm of the belieft that YOU change along with them.  You lose weight and you FEEL better, sexier, more confident and you talk more, make eye contact, seem more approachable too...people react to that as well.  

Now all the other ******** who have actual problems with fat people are just idiots and we don't care about them.
