Is anyone losing more than just weight?

I need a reality check or some kind of clarification here. Maybe this is just the way life and friendship is. I'm not sure that this actually has to do with the surgery--I hate relating everything that happens to me back to the surgery but... I just "broke up" with a long-time friend of mine over various issues, with the fact that I had the surgery and she didn't agree with it being one of them. I'm 14 months out, down 130 pounds and doing fine. My friend is still MO and we used to be diet buddies. I don't talk about the surgery with this friend because I know she doesn't believe in it. It's difficult for me to exercise with her now because she can't do some of the things I can because of her weight. She has also become a born-again Christian (I'm not bashing Christians) and she seems to have lost the ability to questions things. Can I get some kind of feedback here? This is just life, right? This isn't about the weight-- mine or hers, right? We're just too different to be friends now, right?
