I am still at least 4 to 5 months away from surgery with Kaiser as halfway through my classes. I am really having to look at the emotional side of my weight and I am afraid both for this "last" year and next "post" year.
We are the "fat ones" in the family. My husbands family is critical. They are all thin and the kind that dont seem to struggle to stay thin. According to his mom he is "just like your grandfather" in that my hubbie struggles with weight. Compassion for this is non-existant
I am realizing through my classes that part of why I eat is that lack of acceptance.
Anyone else have issues with family that have made them eat and are either pre or post and struggling? based on my history with the family (married 26 years) I can see this will be an issue. I do NOT plan on telling them as they wont see that as we talk about in class, its stomach not brain surgery.
Thanks so much and mentally I am so much more prepared than I was 3 months ago. Thanks for the info on this board.
