I have heard this since I was a little girl!! So done with it. How does anyone think this is a compliment? To me it means, you would be a lot prettier if you weren't so fat! Just come out and say it. These are the people I will think about while kicking some butt at that class!! I hope I survive it!

Lord we need a club because I've gotten that too. Why oh why can't someone just say "Wow your very pretty". It has to always be "wow you gave a very pretty face". As if nothing else extra on me exists lol.

I had an old lady come up to me randomly and tell me how beautiful I am and how I remind her of her daughter. Sweet right? Yeah, then she goes on to say how her daughter has a weight problem too and did these special shakes and lost over 40 pounds! I laughed because I didn't know how else to react to that. Pretty face club member all the way. Should we get jackets? Members only?

That's terrible! When I was pregnant with my son I was in the drs office and two old women were sitting behind me and were saying it was appalling how much weight women gain these days while pregnant and it was a shame I let myself go while pregnant because I had such a pretty face! I was soooooo uncomfortable in the waiting room that day! ( I did gain almost 100 pounds while pregnant with my son, I had preeclampsia and they didn't finally catch it till a week after I had him)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! 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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
