Awww I am sorry! I have had my share of people (strangers usually) that have made similar comments since I carry so much of my wieght in my stomach. it hurts and is embarrasing for everyone, but how stupid of people to assume. Yay you are not going to have to deal with this again!

Heard that ALL the time! I carried all my weight in my mid section, I also used to buy plus size maternity cuz it fit better. One day my nephew came up and asked if I was pregnant, I responded No, he said "oh, my mom says you look like you are!" That same sister in law went shopping with me the other day when I had to track down a size 8 jean at one of their other stores! She has always been a petite size 5 -5'2" and cannot and will not ever understand!

Same here. I have been overweight most of my life. I just had my surgery on July 30, 2012. I am so happy that pretty soon people will not be asking me if I'm pregnant. Just ignore those people and move along. Think about what we will look like in a year from our surgery. We will no longer be asked if we are pregnant. Hurray!

      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?
