A few thoughts

You know we have all been through a lot in the past 6 months. Believe me it's been a emotional roller coaster. But we must all remember where we started and how we felt. I can tell you all right now--- we began as good people...(Overweight good people) and I know as our selfesteem grows so do our feelings.... I just told my husband,( see we go out on the weekends, and he said I was hanging on this guy who has been our friend forever...I am not treating him any different than I had done before. honestly, i am not, but people see me different although I dont see my self different... so a couple of his friends are like, Look at your wife she is hanging on your friend..... so because they said that, it bothered my husband...... so I told him.....Hubby, listen, did this bother you before??? he said "no" I said exactly, I said Being completely honest, I dont want anyone else, and i dont want to be with anyone else and just cuz I am getting smaller dont mean i am gonna be different in that way" Dont get me wrong me and my husband fight all the time, but we always have, I think it is what keeps us together...(unnormal i know) But people are seeing me different cuz of my looks, but I am not acting any different..and as far as the hanging... that means he kept putting his arm on my shoulders... talking to me.. harmless.. I don't want to forget the person I was inside 6 months ago, even though others are.. right??

I agree with you I always say I never want to forget the fat girl inside me- and btw my husband is going thru the same thing as yours.. people are complimenting me constantly and I am definately getting more attention.. he is even much nicer (not that he was mean before) and I said that to him.. why are u sooooo much more romantic/attentive?? what is soo different? just because I'm thinner? (it was starting to hurt my feelings).. he said.. and it does make sense even tho I hadnt thought of it that way.."not just your weight has changed.. you are a nicer person..i think its because your happier and when u are happy people around you are happier so they are nicer".. HES SOOOOO RIGHT.. i hadnt even thought of it that way.. its DEFINATELY not just my weight thats changed. mandy 249/154/145?? sept 20 2005
