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.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
