I'm 49 and had RNY on 2/25/19 - down 20 pounds in the first 30 days. Would have liked to have been down more, but was diagnosed w/influenza B right after surgery. Talk about zero energy...🤬

Now I know what to say!

I had my one month post surgery checkup yesterday for my RNY and I'm so happy I did this!! 😁 My close friends and family have been super supportive and I'm lucky with that.
But I'm irked when someone says I didn't 'need' this surgery, and didn't need to do something this 'radical' to my body. I went into the WLS program with a BMI of 42, 100 pounds overweight and my BP was 164/116 at the start of the program. That's a hot mess.
I've been polite about it but what I really want to do is smile sweetly and say... 'I appreciate your opinion over there Bob, but zero f*cks are given over here 🧐'.
And is it me or is it always skinny people who say this?
Anyone have a polite but firm method of dealing?

Agreed! It did take courage to have the surgery. I went through so much just to get the surgery, I was afraid that if I didn't do it, my life span was going to be significantly shortened with my out of control BP. That's what gets me, I did this for me, and I did this for my son so I'm around for him.

😂I'm gonna copy/pasta that Facebook post and put that to Memory!! I also love how GradyCat is pretending she doesn't know what anyone's talking about!! That's fantastic!!
