I have a few debts at the moment but relatively substantial inheritance on the way as soon as I sell a few properties part of the estate (amount confirmed by the probate solicitor).
I mentioned to DH that I'm thinking about weight loss surgery, I'm deeply unhappy with myself and extremely/morbidly overweight I'd lost a few stone around the time I was pregnant and was the smallest I'd been in a few years after I'd had my DD but I believe I had mild postnatal depression as I found it extremely hard to go out alone with DD (who had health issues that went unidentified for many months).
I've had issues my entire adult life and j want this change I want to kick-start the process as I know it's look and gruelling, even if it's getting finance to do it asap and paying this off when the sales go through. I can really feel it health wise at the moment and was extremely ill with Covid, I really need a drastic change to ensure I'm around for my child and be more active than I can be now. I know the reasons I'm overweight and I'm confident that I'd be dedicated to not getting back to where I am now.
DH is extremely against me doing this now, wants us to move and settle into a house for at least a couple of months before I make any choices. That being said, he isn't entirely supportive of it. I'd lost nearly 5 stone when I met him and put it all back on as his eating habits weren't great but in hindsight that was my own responsibility. Regardless, he has mentioned he doesn't see why I want to do it as I don't need to change and I strongly suspect that's because he's always known me to be overweight and thinks I'd perhaps I'd change in more ways than one.
My AIBU is this, not a question about whether you believe in people having weight loss surgery, but whether to do it asap or wait?
YABU - wait, my DH is right
YANBU - do it as soon as I can
