Stupid things people say when they find out you've had surgery....
"How skinny are you going to get?" "You aren't going to lose more are you?" "You don't need to lose anymore." "You are just going to be depressed when you get fat again!" "You are going to get addicted to weight loss pills." "The calories you eat are unsafe."

NEED SUPPORT :(
Anyone feel like they are losing too much weight? Not being a dick here either. I am almost to 125 and I'm just losing and losing because I watch everything I eat.???????????? Maybe I'm just scared because it's all new, but I want to SELF sabatoge because I feel like I don't deserve it.???????? I wanna gain weight because ppl keep commenting (yet they are still smaller than me?) and it's irritating. Not sure if I am tripping if thin people are just that mean?

I too feel amazing!!!! Starting w/257...I am 1 year and 19 days out, 125lbs down!!!!! I can't even believe this is my body!!!! This was the best investment in myself I have ever made. An investment in peace of mind and freedom from the hungry hippo inside!!!???????? Shopping, hip bones, faster, abs, heels...I mean--WHO'S life is this!!!! Oh shit...its mine!!!! Keep working at it- be patient-change strategy-eat clean -take Vitamins religiously-and sip sip sip your Water (more than any juice or chemical flavor packet)!!! I am thankful I can share this with all of you!!!! We are so very very lucky to get a second chance at living in our bodies!!!!! I have been obese all my life and I am actually wearing a size 7!!!! Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would come from an 18 to a 7!!!!! So grateful... Do your best to live a full life with this new gift!!!!!!! - Feeling amazing!
