[quote=Anonymous]My husband was in your shoes, OP. I loved him then, and I love him now. You are worthy of love no matter your weight.

He tried many diets and exercise plans and nothing stuck. He’d lose 15 lbs, then stall, then quit. He finally did gastric sleeve 10 years ago and it was life changing. He has now begun to gain again and he’s working on it with his doctor. But regardless of whether he gains or not now, he’s had 10 years of increased movement, energy, activities, travel than he would have, and those 10 years put less wear and tear on his vascular system. So well worth it.

If walking hurts or you just can’t make yourself do it, don’t worry. You don’t lose weight through exercise, and right now it is the weight and not your fitness that is probably more damaging to your health. If walking (or other movement) makes you feel good, prioritize it!

Please see your doctor and make sure they put all the options on the table for you, including surgery and medication. Why we make such a big to-do about bariatric surgery I don’t know - people have surgery because they don’t like the shape of their boobs, for heavens sake. This is about your health and your life. Surgery is the only proven treatment for obesity - keep it as an option.[/quote]
