Worst comment you've heard so far



Recommended Posts

Yeah' date=' people who hadn't acknowledge me in YEARS are now all of a sudden commenting on all my shit on fb and liking all my pictures and are trying to talk to me, and it's not even all guys. Oh and that's another thing... I'd be lucky to maybe possibly get 2 likes on a picture 6 months ago... My profile picture has 28 likes... Seriously people?!

See, that's what I'm not trying to deal with. I was going to make a whole new profile and add people to see if the recognize me later and what they have to say, if they treat me different.

Sorry - did. It mean to press send so quickly in previous post. I have an obese relative who makes slightly negative comments such as "oh, your diet is so limited right now - how sad." My calm reply: "it actually is not limited - I have to focus on Proteins." Relative's comment: "how sad that to cannot drink coffee." Calm reply: "I am very happy with Decaf and do not want the appetite-stimulating and dehydration effects of caffeine." Relative's comment: "You are going to have a lot of loose skin." Calm reply: " I am happy to have lose skin and not suffer the negative effects of obesity." This relatives' comments are always said with an artificially sympathetic tone of voice. I consider them slightly passive aggressive. I counter them directly by calmly as soon as they occur because I have to spend a lot of time with this elderly relative. This is a other example of aggression being packaged beneath the veneer of a socially acceptable sympathy and politeness. This relative has a weight problem - so I have a feeling that that is the issue.

By contrast I have another obese relative (a parent) who says positive things such as "I am so happy that this surgery is possible and that you all not have to suffer what I have suffered." This elderly parent is basically bedridden from diabetes and could, sadly, never make it through surgery. Very interesting contrast.

When people remark about how little I eat, I tell them that after looking at their meals it's amazing to think I used to eat that much........conversation ends!

Worst comment I've been told: "you wouldn't need surgery if you just learned how to put the fork down and get off the couch"

My reply was something the lines of if it were that easy obesity wouldn't be a problem.

People are lame!

.::SurgeryDate 7/25/12::.

Ugh, some people are clueless. I've had several family members who have actually had the surgery. The first was 15 yrs ago. She kept all the weight off, hasn't had issues, and it saved her life!!! So my family obviously have the genetics, and all are supportive. I just had the surgery a week ago. Only a couple people outside of my family knows I've had it. I feel it's none of their biz. But if asked I'll offer up how, no guilt only proud that I am bettering my life to make myself healthy.

My lovely husband wondered why i got very angry with him' date=' after returning from my morning walk. He looked at me, and said you are going to have to lose alot of weight on my legs because they are still really fat!!!

Since the op (3 months ago) i have lost about 55 pound, i walk about 2.5 miles each morning and go 3 times a week to aerobic classes. I am trying so hard, i just couldn't understand how stupid he could be. And he wonders why he doesnt get alot of sex!! Lol[/quote']

My now ex husband, after a 22 ur marriage, Mentioned something about my weight gain. F' him. But then he insisted that I was beautiful and don't need this surgery. Divorce finalized 5 days after surgery.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
