ok, i have a personal question...... I am divorced (3 years)  and haven't dated since.  I have been so dissatisfied with my looks, dating hasn't even been an option.  The funny thing is.......my 14 year old daughter has actually been encouraging me to date and I keep telling her I am not ready.  I have zero self confidence at the moment.  Can any single women out there tell me what their experience has been post WLS as far as dating goes.  I know I will gain some of my self confidence back when I am feeling healthy again and feeling attractive again.  But dating again is kinda scary  I haven't dated in 16 years.

I started dating someone new about a year after weight loss surgery and it was great.  We ended up getting married 6 months later.  I have only good things to say .  I just had to put myself out there and everything else took care of itself.  Cindy

Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."
