  1. You know regardless of nworking together this type of response seems to happen a lot with over weight people. I work in a resteraunt , where I bring my own lunch, I have had customers come over to the break area and tell me I should be eating a salad, meanwhile I am sitting there eating a piece of grilled chicken.

    The most embarrasing is when you are ordering a meal and the waitress gives you a look like why are you ordering this.....

    If it was me and this situation happened again I would just say I am an adult and I am concious of what I am doing. I do appreciate your concern but I have it under control. If this doesn't work, simply tell her , that her behavior makes you feel ridiculed and embarrased.

    Hopefully she will get the hint.

    Good luck:thumbup:


  2. Isn't it funny how people can be so ignorant. I mean it definetly is not funny but it just shows how most people have no idea that having this surgery is not to fit in to the "norm" but ultimately to feel better about our selfs and be healthier.

    It is always those who have never struggled with their weight that say the meanest things. They see it as their way of kicking us in the butt and "helping us". Meanwhile they do the total opposite.

    The one thing I always hate is "you have such a pretty face. Just wait till you have your surgery."

    What the hell is wrong with the rest of me?????:confused2:

    I mean we all know we are overweight, all for different reasons but do we need others to explain our inadequacies?

    When situations like this occur I just tell myself, I can lose all my weight, but these people will always be ugly ....maybe not on the outside but defintely the inside.

    Don't worry hun you are bettering yourself , brush off the criticism. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

    Good luck:thumbup:


  3. Hello everyone. My name is Jennifer and I'm 20 years old. I almost have my surgery date ( they are telling me end of july). I guess I am looking for some support through this whole process. :confused_smile:

    Thanks to anyone interested.
