Missing you too!  Glad all is well. When we are out there living we hopefully think less about eating even in food filled enviornments.  I'm so happy its is working so wel for you.  Keep checking in to lend support to new and old alike.  We need each other.

Hi family, I sure do miss you gals LOL. I hope everyone is in good sound health. I been keeping busy working and taking a few trips with the family.

Over all I'm doing great I'm still losing and matter of fact I joined a gym trying to get my muscle toned. I'm still in love with my sleeve and happy with my decisions.

Topic: RE: Changes in Relationships Post-Op
 I have been single for a long time, but my relationship with my friend-girl changed.  She has never had a weight issue, but she worked out all the time.  I worked out (not as often as she did) but I struggled with my weight for years.  After surgery, she would make little snide remarks.  She always presented them as jokes, but once or twice I could overlook.  All the time, I had to believe there was something behind the bites.

Also, I had to take an honest look as to why we were friends in the first place.  I will admit that I was in the friendship for mostly the wrong reasons.  Since moving back to my hometown, I had no one else to hang out with.  And because of my insecurities with my weight, I wasn't venturing out to meet other people.

One of the great things about this journey is all of the reflection I have had to do about me.  Why do I eat so much?  Why do I bottle my feelings?  Why don't I have any friends besides this girl? So, when the veiled insults started, it was clear what I had to do for me.

I don't know what the situation is with your relationship.  I hope that you are able to work it out.

I have the power!  I will make it happen.

Hello. So far I'm about 20 pounds down. I had my surgery a month ago tomorrow. I will definitely be in DC in 2013. I need to register for Founders Day weekend this week.

Donna,
It is reassuring that relationships do not have to change. But I guess it has to start on a good foundation before the surgery. I'm starting to see some changes in mine. The signs were already there, but they are more apparent now.
