November Dates



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. I just want to vent a little if thats ok.

So me and a friend walk our kids to school in the mornings, she is skinny, in shape whatever, so as we were walking we saw a mom running with her kid in the jogger stroller and I said " I want to be able to run like that" (living on a military base sometimes everyone knows everyone business) then she said "yeah well if she didn't have her insides changed she would still be eating twinkies. She then said I would rather be fat as hell than have surgery and look gross with all that skin, maybe if she got her ass up and run early she would not have need the surgery, the she went on to say lazy bi***!"

I was floored... I defended the running but i was so hurt... I think I'm going to need to cut her from my life.

i won't say what i really think of this lady, how rude though, wow just wow

I know others are saying that she's jealous, but I think its actually that some people have NO concept of what its like to battle with their weight. Like my Surgeon was saying, for some people food just doesn't 'do it' for them, and those people have no idea and no sympathy for the struggles we have gone though. I dont think she is going to be a very supportive person in your life, and honestly would consider dropping the relationship, because she could seeth like a toxic swamp and ruin any good feelings you have.

My 'best friend' last night said something that really hurt me. I was talking about how another friend came over and bought pizza one night and Lagsane another night to eat in my house in front of me and how insensitive that was. She told me to 'suck it up'.... seriously, If I was an alcoholic and someone brought over a bottle of wine to drink in front of me would she react the same?? It made me really really angry

OMG!!!!! That makes me mad just reading it! I would drop her......fast! She sounds like a negative Nancy! Maybe you could try to talk to her but if that is her mind set than talking may not help... what a sad situation.

Thanks ladies. Yes, I think I'm going to drop her, we haven't been friends too long for me to be very emotional about it. I told her I was starting a diet on Nov first and she texted me saying she is having drinks and pizza at her house on Nov 2nd and don't worry about my diet big is beautiful... I'm done with her.

My surgery is on Friday! Cleaning like crazy tonight! Last day of work is tomorrow! I can't wait to start my new life. My family is all there for me. My boyfriend on the other hand hates the idea of it and is all for the natural way. We have been together for 5 years. I have worked my butt off for years. The natural way isn't working for me! I am doing what I feel is the best thing for me! I will keep everyone updated! Stephanie

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
