    BuzzVSG got a reaction from Frustr8 in Oh how the tables have turned......   
    He is definitely a true friend. A friendship that has been built over two decades. In all due respect, you don't know the semantics of the early stages of the friendship. They were my feelings based upon actual social behavior on his part, and how do you know he didn't go out of his way? He actually did. However with that being said over the years he has matured as we all do and he is a good friend.

    BuzzVSG got a reaction from Screwballski in Oh how the tables have turned......   
    Ever since I can remember, I have been the "fat guy". That is what I was known for. I never took my shirt off at a pool or a beach, ever! That is something I want to change though. So, my best friend who I graduated high school together has always been much slimmer, popular, girls flocked to him; I sure you get the drift. Although we have been friends for over two decades I feel he never took me seriously because of my weight. At parties, clubs, bars, social situations I was always the one who was ignored and not payed attention too. Well, he moved out of state and we see each other about twice a year. He has a very stressful job and as a result has been emotionally eating and gained a significant amount of weight. He is one of the few that know that I had my surgery and he is very supportive. We saw each other for the first time in over a year last week and guess what...drum roll.....I weigh less than him. He even made a comment on how I was flirting with the waitress at the restaurant we met at. It felt like I was in his shoes for once. It felt truly that the tables have turned.

    BuzzVSG got a reaction from TakingABreak in I hit onederland!   
    Well, I am officially below 200 lbs. I simply cannot believe it. It almost doesn't feel real to me. I never thought in a million years I would accomplish any weight loss goals let alone get below 200 lbs. I have gotten a lot of good advice from members on here and I want to thank you all. Although our journeys are all unique they all revolve around the same basic premise, changing our lives for the better.
    I still have so much work to do such as working out harder, coming to terms with the new me I am striving everyday to be better. I ask myself, why didn't I do this sooner? I had a great day today.

    Hey everyone. I tried this wrap today. It was actually good. I put two ounces of sliced chicken breast, fat free ranch, and some lettuce. I actually ate the whole thing. I feel guilty because I am trying to stay low carb so yeah, I am scared of food.
    90 cals
    15 carbs.

    Don't you think you undermine your message that you think Creek is a bully, when you say the things you have in this thread?
    I participated in the thread you are referring to. I didn't read Creek's comments in the same way you did. It's my belief that @FluffyChix can dish it out, but can't take it. She doesn't hesitate to put her opinions out there, but when she is challenged she picks up her toys and goes home. Just my opinion.
    I'm not done losing, I look forward to looking good naked as well as clothed (And vanity is one of my main drivers to have had WLS)
    And for the record, Creek and I are not buddies and have had no interactions beyond can be read on this public forum.

    BuzzVSG reacted to MIZ60 in The regain posts   
    Not sure if there is a point here but I believe every person should love the way they look no matter what but that is not always as easy as it sounds. If you are happy with yourself and your appearance that is all that matters and you should stay right where you are. For me, weight loss is much more about health and enjoying my life than how I look. I want to be as healthy as possible for as long as possible and I am amazed this is happening to me at age 60.
    Creekimp13 is much more than strong opinions--she IS a bully.. She is convinced that her way is the only right way and constantly criticizes and denigrates others who do not eat like her calling them stupid names and predicting their failure. She has insulted and denigrated me and my profession while showing her self-satisfied ignorance and denigrated and insulted others on here, stating their diet caused all their health problems and saying we are all going to need a kidney transplant because we don't eat a crapload of carbs. I am not a "ketoevangelist" and have researched the difference between the various diets....one size does not fit all.
    Someone who used stats of a professional male bodybuilder to justify her overweight BMI is just ridiculous. I do not care what she says she weighs or what she says she eats but there is no reason to be so nasty about it. I have not encountered anyone else on here that is so dismissive and disrespectful of others.
    Great she has a couple of buddies to jump in here and defend her
