Ya HAH! Me too. I'm not a picky eater and don't have food issues other than I really, REALLY like it, the question that stopped me was: "How was your childhood? Relationship with your parents?"

I don't know how it was relevant, but my answer was: "GREAT! I had a pretty uneventful childhood." In actuality, it was a train wreck. I so didn't want to go there.

My answer to that question will be my childhood was a TRAIN WRECK but I'm in counseling for it. ;) and I LOOOVEE food too. Especially all the ones I'm not supposed to eat. But I WILL down play that. hahahaha

1. I confess I am addicted to this site!

2. I confess that being 33 lbs down I don't see much of a difference

3. I confess I have to remind myself that the last time I lost 33 pounds...well actually I can't remember!....I need to be patient.

4. I confess that I'm afraid I will over eat or start eating the wrong foods and fall back into bad habits

5. I'm terrified I won't lose all the weight I want to.

I confess that watching others eat now often makes me feel ill

I confess that I am scared of turning into a snob

I confess that I am scared of turning into a snob

I think UI have turned into a bit of a health food, anti-sugar, anti-processed food, make it yourself from scratch snob.

Yesterday my family went to a Chinese place and they were ordering family style. They ordered orange chicken, lo-mein noodles, fried rice, kung pao chicken, crispy fried beef and egg rolls.

I told them I would have to either order the scallops and asparagus or the shrimp and snow peas. I saw the slight roll of the eyes. None of them eat seafood BTW. I have to admit that I was astounded at their selections - the very worst on the menu health-wise.

Yeah, I'm officially a snob.

OMG! I thought that I was the only one that went to the dark side! I have become such snob when it comes to eating now. I even get angry at my hubby for making bad choices at dinner and not wanting to share. I can't help (actually I don't want too). yayyyyyyyyyy! :)

I'm very judgmental of what others eat now. Sitting at a buffet disgusts me.

I am relieved to read that I am not alone!

They say ex smokers become the worst anti smoking critics and snobs so perhaps it is the same for ex fatties?

I'm on day 2 of my two week liquid pre-op diet and I was in an all day meeting at work where they brought in lunch. TORTURE. I ate 5 dry lettuce leaves and 3 chunks of chicken from the inside of a wrap.

Then 3 cups of chicken broth I brought from home.

I confess that I do compare my weight loss to others' on this site and get pissed off almost daily.

I confess that I bought a 4 pack of Moscato Rose this past weekend and drank them all in 2 days. (I'm still proud of myself though, because I used to buy the big bottles and have 3-4 glasses every day, before I had the surgery.)

I confess that I just cannot get motivated enough to exercise like I should.

I confess that I always look at myself when I pass a window at work because I can't believe how small I'm getting.

I confess that I still eat fast food a lot, I don't like to cook for only myself.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
