Hi! After 15mths of having my wls I am doing well! I feel like the poster child of wls! Besides all the hassle getting a wls Dr and getting a lawyer to fight my insurance company after that everything has gone GREAT! Ok the first week after wls was far from great! Couldn't move ect.. Pain! Ya know what I want now? I just want to feel like a normal person! I feel like a fat person in a skinny persons body! No kidding! Most of the time when I am with a group of women I am the smallest one there. I feel guilty! I went from a size 24 to an 8 in the past year. No I do not miss the 125 lbs gone! I do feel lucky that I have found a guy who wants to know all about my wls and the rules ect.. about my new way of life, it does not bother him. I dated a guy for 3 yrs before wls, he could care less if I were dead or alive then or now so last yr right before wls I knew it was time to move on! Boy o Boy the things I have come across since dateing more and telling them about my wls after a few dates! Not many guys wanted to listen and not judge! I wore a size 9 but one guy said "he felt like he was dating a fat gal" That was the end of him! When he called back to say "Sorry' I excepted his applogy but not another date! Ok I have dated Kendall for over 2 mths now, he is real health food caring ect,, takes vitamins ect.. Worries a little to much about if I am getting all I need food wise and vitamin wise. My wls surgery has not been a problem for him! Now we have had a few tiffs but nothing big! Twice over parking! Sometimes in St Louis we have to pay $6-10 bucks to pay to park and sometimes the traffic is terrible! He gets real nervous about this! Upset when were down town in a crowd ect..So I have told him I am not inviting him to public large events! I can go with girlfriends! We are going to start visitng churches together to find one we can attend together! Now that I am excited about! Ok I will stop boring ya all! KEEP UP ALL THE HARD WORK! SEE YA LIGHTER! Cyndi
