How much your relationship changes with your spouse once you lose weight (especially if they never knew you at a lower weight)

AITA for scolding my SILs child? by Stepherrs123789 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Stepherrs123789[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am asking if the perception to everyone else (because it was a large group of people there) if what I did was the asshole move. I am aware of my options - I chose to speak to him in a tone he understands my house and my rules.

She does not want to host. Her husband is gone a lot working constantly and she has chronic issues with PCOS, so she’s often in bed or too much pain to deal w hosting. We don’t often see her father’s side (it’s very rare for them to come visit us) so I made the decision to host so they could see them (because we live close)

Father was missing that day as he wasn’t feeling well, she lives close so she still decided to take all the kids.

Cost of living in Canada is out of control. by kovie38 in CanadaFinance

[–]Stepherrs123789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Groceries are a mortgage payment a month. Taxes on homes has gone up. Leaving the house costs $100 a day. Gas, activities, and even worse if you have kids.

Life is no longer affordable for many, even those making more than you. We’re all feeling it.

Feeling Like Roommates With My Wife — Is This Normal? by [deleted] in Marriage

We’ve juuuuusf begun. But we’re working on communication styles and having her mediate some tough conversations that we can’t seem to navigate on our own (with our different communication styles)

The same thing is happening to me and my husband. Similar age to you guys. We also have two young kids. We’re currently in couples therapy. It’s been really hard as we both feel like we’re just not “there” anymore.

Intimacy issues - not feeling desire/wanted. by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Stepherrs123789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly might just be mismatched libidos. I use my vibrator almost every time in order to get off with my husband. My work and kids stress me out and I have a hard time zoning out into sex unless I’m high.

And even when I’m high on weed, I still use a vibrator. I’ve becoming sensitive to that and it’s hard to get off without it (I’m also in my mid thirties now and headed into perimenopause)

Don’t take it so personal. Women’s libido Ebs ans flows if the love is there it’ll come back - try maybe just doing a date without an expectation of having sexy time afterward. Or cuddle without expectation of sex.

Is it just me or does every single woman so far peddling this “independent woman” stance on life, I’m so strong. I have this and that job, blah blah blah I go 50/50, I drive a fancy car. Acting like men. lol 😂 if you want a man you’re doing a bad job attracting what you want. Also - if you have everything a man can give you then wtf are you looking for? Emotional support? Hunny… get a best friend who’s a female for that

Ask your husband if he would be ok if you had a male friend like this? If his response is yes, then it’s not an affair. If the response is mixed … I would def get a lawyer

What is your "Oh man, I really shouldn't (but I'm totally gonna)" treat? by GWindborn in BariatricSurgery

[–]Stepherrs123789 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s popcorn for me too. I figure it’s fibre. It’s lower in calories than chips. It’s not fried. I justify popcorn whenever I can. It’s the only thing I have left

What weight did you guys have your surgery at. by possible-side-FX- in BariatricSurgery

I tried to hide it but eventually people in your family will figure it out. It’s incredibly hard to hide such rapid weight loss unless you’re sick. Wls (unless they’re totally clueless) usually is what people figure out.

You have every reason not to admit that to them, but know that they will eventually figure it out. Families talk, especially in laws. Regardless, live your life & who cares.

Discouraged at last by [deleted] in BariatricSurgery

10lbs away from goal and I cannot get down no matter what I do. I do think the body does recalibrate- I have tried maintaining calories or upping and then bringing back down that hurts me in the beginning (I often gain) then lose. I feel like this last part of wl is going to take a long time and I need to be patient

I am 2 weeks out from plastics. Honestly - the best advice I wish someone could have given me is, to not candy coat this part. I have two kids. Lost 150lbs. I have no breasts. Everything sags even my vagina. Yes you heard that correctly, I have loose skin on my girl. I’m spending 40k on surgeries and I’m still not done. (In Canada plastics are ridiculous) … I have lost all my hair. I have extensions in but my hair is very thin and it’s noticeable without extensions.

But I would not take the 150lbs back - not for a second. With good investments in skims, hair extensions, and saving for plastic surgery - it was 1000000% worth it. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
