Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

I am so sick of people and their freakin comments!



Recommended Posts

Maybe next time a semi stranger says "Gee, how much weight have you lost!?", I might try saying "Gee, how many manners have you lost?".

I also find it uncouth, ill mannered and rude to comment on people's weight unless they bring it up.

I had someone ask me what my pants size was now I said 14, and she said "really, because you look bigger than that. I mean you're not as big as you were before, I would have guessed you were at least an 18 now."

The nerve of people!

*gobsmacked*

:blink:

Seriously. How the eff do you respond to something like that?!? I would politely brush past it I'm sure, but omgwtf. Can not BELIEVE people didn't learn better manners than that. :huh:

WOW! I am just taken aback that people are really like this! All I've had was one "look" from someone when I told them and they changed their "tone" pretty quick after that though! I haven't had anyone say anything to me at all and if they ever do, I don't hold myself back!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
