I have known a couple of people that have had the weightloss surgery...first of all...I need to admit that I have tried so many diets and the LBS diet has by far been the most successful one! Not really funny but hey...
The one girl I know, has done well, has had to have a tummy tuck and has a couple of other problem areas...her H has not been totally supportive but she is doing good.
The other person...happens to be OW...I don't know her but after BD...H admitted that she has got some major sagging skin issues...obviously, she has some emotional issues since she is having an A with a married man who is 17yrs older than her...
Over-eating is emotional and an addiction...that is why they won't do the surgery until they feel you are ready. Otherwise, you tend to become addicted to something else...gambling, sex, alcohol etc.
Since I have lost weight...I do have slightly more confidence but I find that I am uncomfortable with the extra attention whether it be from well meaning acquantinces who have noticed or unwanted attention from other guys...
I guess what I am trying to say is...until you are comfortable with yourself...fat or skinny...it will not solve all your issues! Work from the inside out!!! I am not for or against the surgery...whatever works for the individual!
Mystik.....I promise you that if you can learn to love yourself...everyone else will love you too!
