Should i tell my boyfriend i was 550 pounds?

Posted by Unknown on Thursday, September 5, 2013
so im 26 years old and i have been dating this guy for a 3 months now and we are taking things slow, but so far things are great. he is cute, funny and so sweet. yesterday we got together and we were talking about what we were like in high school. he told me he was scrawny, a hipster, and loved music. i told him was artsy, bubbly, and petite, when really that was a complete lie. growing up i was morbidly obese. i was a 400 pound freshman and i graduated highschool at 550 pounds. i didnt have a dad and i had a skinny older sister and mom who always made fun of me for my weight, so i always turned to food for comfort. Just as a teen, i had breathing and heart problems and it hurt just to stand up. I will always remember this, when i was 18 i went to the doctor and i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and he told me if i didnt lose weight i would be dead by the time i was 20. i started dieting and slowly started exercising and now 8 years later im 120 pounds and i dont have diabetes anymore, so i have lost in total 430 pounds. i still keep my old clothes to remind myself how far iv come. i dont like to tell people about my weight loss story because im kind of embarressed by it. i dont want people to know i used to weigh a quarter of a ton. Unfortunately, i still have stretch marks and the scars from my surgery to remove my loose skin, so no matter what the stretch marks and scars will never go away and thats why when i look into the mirror i still see that fat girl. i feel like right now him and i are in the phase of our relationship in which we should be completely honest with each other, but im afraid if i tell him il just scare him off. should i tell him?

How to Lose Weight Quickly for Women Over 40

Recommended Answer:

First off I want to say congratulations! I have struggled with weight my whole life and I understand. You need to stop thinking of yourself as fat and be proud of your accomplishment! Now about your boyfriend, you should tell him. If he loves you he will respect you for your strength and what you did to make yourself healthy.

  • Might make a cool story. I doubt he'd get upset by anything that far in the past.
  • Hey! If he loves you it doesnt matter! Its un the past, i knoe you dont wanna take advice from a 13 year old but im in 8th grade and i weigh 205 pounds! Last time i checked!
  • Go ahead and tell him:)It will make him feel good that you are opening up to him about something so personal.Don't let it embarrass you, just keep that memory as a reminder of WHO you were and how FAR you have come. :)

  • Well, ur already a good weight I'd say. If ud like to tone up a little, the key, i say this to every diet nut..Unless u have a specic health condition (diabetes, hypo/hyper glycemia, etc.) All u have to do is cut out raw white sugar. That's it. PopCandyFruit beverage (get juice, not drank)Cheap pastriesIt's a long list. Anything really sweet. Put honey in ur coffee or tea in stead of sugar. Doing this will make all the difference, especially if ur only 20. As long as ur at least mildly active, ull stay trim
  • Don't listen to that "doctor."There is no miracle plan lol. Okay so whatever you do, don't get extreme with this, and be patient. Those are the first two steps to losing weight. I'm going to make you a calorie per week plan. Promise me you won't drink your calories because that is very often ignored and every calorie counts!Sunday- 1800Monday-1000Tuesday- 1200Wednesday- 1600Thursday- 1000Friday- 2000Saturday- 1500If you eat like that, and be very strict with it, while doing cardio and body training (lifting, muscle building) You will lose 1 or 2 pounds of FAT each week, but if you are serious about muscle building and exercise, you might gain some muscular weight. But don't be disheartened! Look at your body! Not the scale! Muscle burns calories at rest, as well. On Monday and Thursday, your "crash" days, (this might sound like a crazy anorexic thing but trust me) You can feel free to eat even less than that, because your body will be shocked and because your metabolism will be working at a good pace, the sudden spike of caloric intake will help it to burn that extra bit of fat.Here are some low calorie snacks tat will fill you up:ONE SERVING OF EACH. DO NOT EAT MORE THAN WHAT IS THE EXACT SERVINGBisquick pancakes- only use water in the mix and lots of it so you feel like you have more pancakes>you can get half calorie syrup and use 1/6 of a cupAny Fruit or veggiesProgresso Low fat soup (<100 calories per SERVING)Surprisingly, subway veggie delight mini sub (130 cal)Black beans and tilapiaNOT NUTS!!!! Not peanutbutter! Not cheese.salad. I love salad.***take any simple healthy organic basic dish, and just add lots of spices to it! People put foods with foods to give it more flavor, but that just adds calories when you can have the same impact with spices! I put spices on everything.***If you are going to eat something with bread... ie a sandwich, burrito, calzone... whatever, just eat the insides. It will fill you just as much. As for pasta, I used to make the sauce, and just steam broccoli and cauliflauer instead! Anyways, good luck, the yearn to lose weight is very understandable for all women. I hope this helps you out!
