So inspired by Al's bravery and courage in this and her honest discussion of her struggle with weight loss, beauty, obesity, and health. Her description of being comfortable with yourself and your body while at the same time having to face the devastating realization that the body you have fought so hard to love has health problems really resonated with me. Wishing you a smooth recovery Al and the long life of joy that your kind soul deserves

[@jh2419]

Al is a stunning looking woman. If she wants to lose weight fof her health good for her. It will only make her even more beautiful.

I am currently shopping for a wedding dress as a size 4. I definitely don’t qualify as a ‘curvy bride’ but I would give anything to have Al and Jo help me find my wedding gown. They are so amazing and they really do make a difference in a lot of these women’s lives I think.

[@molecularly_unique1707]

I got married at 25 and divorced by 32. It was an extremely abusive and loveless marriage. I was constantly fat shamed to the point that I have no self confidence. Since then, I am scared of getting close to anyone for fear of getting hurt again and being judged (I am an Indian). But this episode made me have faith that I too deserve and will have a happy ending.

[@harshas7265]

I hope your life gets better. All the best!

[@LauraBidingCitizen]

Of course you deserve happiness sweetheart. But it takes time to heal, especially after a loveless, abusive marriage. Have you ever spoken to anyone Simran? I’m not sure where you live, but here in the UK they have self referral counselling services attached to local GP surgeries, a friend of mine is 11 months out of a relationship similar to yours & is improving every day with counselling for her PTSD / confidence issues. Be kind to yourself ❤️ Xx

[@NoraGuy]

I was married at 21 and divorced at 23 (he cheated and was not the most loving husband). I married again at 26 and divorced at 44 (he was verbally, emotionally and financially abusive and withheld affection). When I was 45, and two weeks into quarantine, I met a fellow 45-year-old divorcee. I was terrified to tell him I’d been married twice, but he loves and accepts me for who I am. We’re coming up on 2 years together, navigating two challenging careers, raising a total of 5 kids between the two of us, and all that comes with all that. I’d love to marry this man, but I’m not ready. My last marriage made me question whether I *truly* deserve happiness and lack of judgment. This clip made me emotional… I also have a friend who had weight loss surgery at the beginning of 2020, for the same reasons as here.

[@NoraGuy]

You are human, you are worthy and 100% deserving of love!

[@galady8632]

Simran - You sound like a kind lady. This may sound odd but it might be worth considering: please be as kind to yourself as you are to others. Abusive people are all about control - usually to compensate for their hidden insecurities. Degrading others is the only way they can feel good about themselves. You deserve happiness and joy. Marriage hasn't ever been on my agenda but a friend that was recently divorced wanted to socialize a bit. I suggested wine-tasting gatherings, art shows, book signings' at bookstores, yoga classes, etc. She joined a yoga class focused on people trying to lose weight. She ended-up making several guy and gal friends, she is actually married with 2 children. She said it was worth it all to have her husband and children.

You ladies are so wonderful! I had weight loss surgery 12 years ago. I went from 300lbs. down to 145lbs. I also went from a size 24 down to a size 6/8. And yes it’s just what you said “it’s a tool!” And a lot of people don’t realize just exactly how much work goes into it. Good Luck Beautiful Lady!! Post your updates for all of your fans to see😊

Nothing stopping anyone from just eating less. Don't you think permanently mutilating your digestive system is a bad choice compared to, you know, dieting? A risky, expensive waste of medical resources just because you're too lazy to count calories.

@@jimisparx6953 “just dieting” and exercise doesn’t work for everyone. Doesn’t work for me and I’ve tried every diet out there. Some people have health conditions that cause their metabolism to stop working. Oh. And… weight loss surgery doesn’t work by itself either. It will for a bit but the person has to maintain a healthy lifestyle to keep that weight from piling back on. I’ve seen it happen too many times.

I had weight loss surgery in 2003. I think we all go through a "mourning " period afterward. But, i would do it again in a heartbeat. Hugs to you Al.

[@heidiquayle5054]

My daughter was warned about it. She actually felt more body confident at 300+ pounds than she does now because of loose skin. I don't think she really believed that it would happen because she was young and many people said her skin would bounce back, but that wasn't the case (nor can it be to lose 170lbs off your body). She was thinking she'd only be able to get to maybe 180, but once she hit that weight, she recognized that she had the drive and ambition to go after her health and fitness ideals! That came with sacrifice. One day she will get skin surgery and boy that will be a lifechanger.

Rooting for you 100% for the weight loss surgery, Al! I had to lose a lot of weight too, this past year or so, for health reasons rather than aesthetic ones, and I can tell you that yes, it IS hard, but it is SO worth it when those health problems lessen and finally go. (And it won't mean you can never eat cake again, either - not as much of it, and not as often as before, maybe, but it can still be an occasional treat. 😊)

My first time I got married, it was at a courthouse, so I really didn't care if I had a bug wedding with a dress, etc, but it was my second husband's first marriage and he really wanted the wedding, dress, reception, etc. So we did! That was 27 years ago and we're still going strong!! I married my best friend, we were friends before we dated, and we're different but we work well together!

[@disavowalf3351]

Hey, Joanna, isn’t it just wonderful to have a best friend who is the first thing you see when you wake up and the last thing you see when you go to sleep? We had a very low key wedding, just us and his parents, as mine have both passed, but luckily as best friends it was what we both wanted. I always try to tell younger women, who are disillusioned with love, to look to their friends. After one evening where he nearly made me barf from laughing so much, I thought "Exactly what else could I possibly want?" That was 7yrs ago…so I’m down 20th on you…go you!!!…but giddy happy still!! It can also be a mistake to look for someone who is the same as you, differences can be a gift if done harmoniously: I’m feisty, he’s calm; he’s a procrastinator, I’m organised…yay. You can’t truly be friends with someone without finding them attractive on some level, to look beyond "Friendsville" can be ideal, as there is truly treasure there. Wishing you all the very best for the future❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️ (And the very very best of luck to Al with her journey❤️)

[@margaretroebuck2938]

Al, you can do anything. You have the heart, the will and the support of everyone who loves you. And girl, we who love you are legion! You are a light to all of us who share your struggle. You CAN do this!

[@suzetteworks6820]

Al, I think you are such a lovely, kind and supportive person. I hope others are as good to you as you seem to be to others. Weight loss surgery is a very difficult choice. I have been on the weight loss roller coaster all of my adult life. I made the decision to have a sleeve gastrectomy as opposed to the gastric bypass surgery. As you said, it is only a tool. I lost a significant amount of weight fairly quickly. Over the course of 3 very stressful years I gained it back and then some. I had the surgery but never really changed my lifestyle nor did I address why I was eating the way I was. Fast forward 10 years, I have finally changed my lifestyle and lost all of the excess weight. It took me almost 2 years but it has been a wonderful journey. It won’t be an easy journey for you but the surgery is a great step. I know you will be successful and happy with your accomplishments. Prior to loosing weight I was pre diabetic, had many issues with back and knee pain, my cholesterol was “dangerously” high. Currently, I no longer need medicine for the diabetes. My back and knee pain has decreased substantially. My cholesterol (although still high) has improved greatly. We don’t know each other on a personal level but I feel connected to you and Jo. Your stories ring true! If I can offer any words of advice it would be to just take one day at a time. You are strong and beautiful! YOU’VE GOT THIS!! Sending you a virtual hug 🤗

I cried along with this beautiful bride, because I have walked her shoes when it comes to being married several times. I don't understand why a man that has been married several times is looked at differently than a woman who has been married several times as well. She is happy, beautiful and definitely deserves that happily ever after❤️. God bless her union🙏💖.........Weight loss is about health reasons, but also about how you look at food (a crutch when depressed, anxious, etc). It's the battles inside ourselves that people don't see when they look at a person that is overweight, that's why making the decision to have weight loss surgery is so important to the individual. Good bless you and may you have a speedy recovery ❣️

[@gaycale5563]

Congratulations on a gorgeous dress for a gorgeous bride! I had gastric sleeve in 2013 and I do not regret having it done but it is a lifestyle that you need to follow the rest of your life. It is definitely not for everyone but for those that commit to it I applaud you! God bless!

[@duchessliz2415]

The choice to have WLS is a really tough one. It took me YEARS to finally decide to go through with it. For me it was when my niece was born in February 2019 and it suddenly hit me that if I didn't do something, if I didn't lose the weight, then I wouldn't get to see her grow up due to my declining health. I cried because the idea of not seeing my niece grow up broke my heart as it had been the greatest joy of my life watching her big sister grow up (she's almost 10 years older than her younger sister). I was 392 pounds at my heaviest (389 pounds when I made the decision to have WLS). I'm two years post-op and currently weigh 179 pounds (I was 175 at my lightest, but you tend to gain a few pounds after you hit maintenance. I've been the same basic weight since September 2021. My weight bounces from 178-183 and I just lose and gain the same few pounds). I went from a size 34 women's jeans (in US size) to a size 12 (in US size). A 6xL top (US sizing) to a medium (again, US sizing). My feet even shrank! I went from a US 10W to a size 9. My ring size also went from a 10 down to a 5. WLS isn't an easy choice to make, and it really is just a tool because you have to work with it for it to work for you. It's a complete life change and the only thing I regret about it... is not doing it for myself sooner. I wish Al the best on her own weight loss journey in improving her health!

I had weight loss surgery 13 years ago. I lost 160lbs bringing me to 130lbs and managed to keep it off. Weight loss surgery is definitely not the easy way. It still took eating healthy and eating smaller portions. I know so many people who have had it and gained all their weight back, plus more. Its not easy and I didn't want to go through all that just to gain it all back. I don't deprive myself, so if I'm at a birthday party or a special event, I'll have a bite or two of cake and it satisfies me. Mostly I try to eat foods in their most simplest form and stay away from processed foods. It gets easier as time goes by to eat right. I wish you luck on your journey. Just remember, its not easy and not a cure-all, its a tool and if used properly, it works! All the best to u!

Absolutely stunning and beautiful bride, and the dress is perfect. I've been married several times and I'm ALWAYS put down for it even though I was a victim with complex PTSD's from it all. I've been divorced for 15 years, very lonely but happy with myself. I pray for the right man for me and me the right woman for him but so far no one's come into my life. Amy, you're so gorgeous and you very much deserve the wedding with your most amazing man. Never look back, hun. You go girl! Hugz, Tree

What a sweet nan, what a beautiful soul, she reminds me my late mum.. It brought tears to my eyes... Just the support of a few people in someone's life, can make the difference between being happy or not happy...

I am so happy Jo is getting the surgery. She deserves every happiness. This beautiful bride also deserves her wedding day. We all deserve to be loved and to be happy.

Lovely bride, lovely dress, and lovely Al…you have so many people in your corner! And anyone who says weight loss surgery is the easy way out hasn’t done any research on it. It is a different kind of hard, but it is just as hard as losing weight through diet and exercise.

Seeing these videos always make me feel so happy and pleasant, but it’s almost even more pleasant reading through all of these heart warming comments. What a breath of fresh air! 💕

This is by far the most wonderful boutique on SYttD, and it's so so lovely to see that it isn't just about helping the bride, and that these lovely ladies sometimes get back all the good that they put out in the world. Everyone here is so wonderful.

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for acknowledging that weight loss surgery is not the easy way out. I had my gastric bypass in July '05 and never looked back nor regretted my decision.
