Down 207lbs and a husband...what now?
my gastric bypass was January 9th 2010.I have lost two hundred and seven pounds to date, but what now?my ex was 17 years walked out 7 years and I still find myself sitting home alone. Obviously I was never in the "in" group or part of the popular crowd, I just don't have that mentality. It's really hard being me....
Awe. Now what? Be kind to yourself and live life to the fullest.. I am not part of the "in" crowd either, but it doesn't bother me. I know I am wonderful. It took me until my 40's to realize that. Volunteer or join a meet-up group in your area. Get out of the house!!

When I found myself single I joined meetup groups - the single scene is huge here in Denver and it's NOT to pick up dates - it's to have a social life that doesn't depend on having a partner! We would go to dinner, meet up for football watching, dancing, live music, theatre/comedy trips - all sorts of fun.
I was a single mum so had to confine my social life to every other weekend, but I honestly could have been out every night of the week!

Dancing? I guarantee you there are others in your town, with some of your same interests-and THEY are looking for YOU
