What I Want Most Besides Good Health/What I Miss The Most

I want to be healthy. Today, I was thinking that when I have my surgery I am looking forward to an active healthy lifestyle and the aching knees and back pain to go away, etc. But do you know what I miss most? I have not had a close hug in over 15 years. I have noticed too, that when someone touches me on the arm in a gesture-type of way, they pull back. I get a pat on the back for a hug. If it weren't them, I would be me doing the pulling away simply because of my terrible stomach and fat. I want a nice hug. I want to be close to someone from the shoulders all the way down to knees. I want to slow dance and not have to worry about my rolls getting in the way. I have literally suffered for years and years from lack of affection. I get the BEST hugs from my son, but I am a 35 year old woman if you know what I mean. I have not had sex in years. Four to be exact because I am affraid to take my clothes off. Has anyone had that experience pre-op and then had the best experience post-op? Will you please share it with me? Thanks...
