my mom thinks my weight loss surgery will be complete over a weekend and i will have lost almost 100lbs. i tried to explain to her about the surgery, how the weight doesn't fall off overnight, and we have to work at keeping the weight off forever.

She still doesn't understand and thinks i will be thin forever, no problems or working at it, to succeed. keeping the weight loss. She said "i've only lost 40 lbs" I never should have told her. i told my dh and daughter, they are fine about the whole process and understand

anyone else have similar situations?

Here's what you do:

Hi mom! This is a pitbull:

This pitbull ways 40 lbs.

Imagine picking this sucker up and carrying him around all day every day.

I've lost an entire pitbull in a handfull of months.

How long did it take you to lose a pitbull?.... that's what I thought.

GOOD ONE!!!!!!!!!!

My best friend asked on the day of surgery, "how soon will you see results?" lol. I told her as soon as my big butt starts eating right and exercising!

GOOD ONE TOO

my mom is awesome but when i told her i hit the 50 pound mark, she said "oh good your almost done". Haha. I said "when i get under 200 you can start but intill then off my back". She said "well how much more do you want to lose", she bout had a heart attack when i tolder her 96 haha. My aunt is really nervous im going to be thinner than her. When she saw my new facebook profile pic she said "wow you look better than me now" WTH?!?!

You go girl! Keep up the good work. I am ready to finish losing mine for sure!!!
