My life truly has changed
on 10/27/15 3:01 pm
For a few years after my RNY I was truly confused . I met and married the wrong man .. then I acquired the TRULY wrong abusive boyfiend . Part of me suspected I was going crazy... especially because daily alcohol was involved . I stayed sober for a year only to see my life end up even worse .
The point of this is that I did get out wiser , better , hotter , younger . I still mistrust men but I am writing to few Swedish dudes ...
My agent also set me up with a " celbrity " I played ball with ( and turned down ( all summer ... barf. He fed everyone I know ... is this real life because it SUCKS
I am sorry to hear all you have been going through. Sadly, we all have our burdens in life. I am dealing with a sick husband that may not be able to live with me much longer.
My best advice? Start loving yourself before you reach out to other people for love. Once you do, the right person will come along to enhance and brighten your life not keep you in the dark

Please update us on your well-being. I hope that you took the advice that the ObesityHelp staff offered in the other thread in which you posted.
As a therapist myself, please know that we become alert and concerned when we hear/read someone making statements that they may be a danger to themselves. We wish you well as you continue on your journey!
