Need a pick me up!!!!!

I'm very proud of my progress so far I've lost 68 pounds since my rny on March 28th. Recently a guy at work has become very interested in me. Everything was fine until it came down to me telling him about my surgery ... not like we can hide it!!! lol I know that I can't expect everyone to have a positive response to the hard work that goes in to our decisions, but for the first time someone wasn't positive. I feel like I became his charity case. Offering workout plans, but no longer a date. I can't help that a part of me is hurt by this. I guess what I'm trying to say is- is there a stigmatism coming with this surgery that we are somehow less of a person? I'm very emotional typing this, but at the same time want feedback ... harsh or easy. I made this choice because like many of us, wanted weight behind me, and will never be sorry. Feeling very gun shy. Has anyone else went though something similar?
