I'm sitting in class right now and there is a very obese woman sitting behind me eating a cheeseburger and 1/4 lb bag of fries and gulping on a huge soda. It's gross listening to her eat and gulp her soda.

I realized I used to eat and drink like this but dear God! I didn't realize until today I don't miss soda. I don't miss it all.

I feel horrible to be critical since I was as big as her. I think maybe I'm envious of not eating what is but I don't miss it and would be satisfied with a bite but she loud reaching loud. Ugh sorry needed to vent. Usually I was walk away but she is right behind me. :(

I felt the same way about a girl crunching on some potatoe chips today in class! In my mind I was saying how bad those chips are for her and if she only knew but I secretly wanted some lmao!

I find myself giving my husband looks while he's eating. Thinking are you really going to eat that second plate of spaghetti, really? Then I remind myself at least he eats slower than I did. I would had been done with my second plate 30mins ago! It's kinda ironic and scary!

Me too! Lol I ate super fast!!! But my thinking is awful and I have guilt for thinking and feeling this way. I felt like geez lady you don't need to eat all that. :/

But that's her path. I need to be less annoyed by the actions of others lol

I am right there with you Jenn! Thanks for reminding me to give others grace! I do find myself getting irritated easily, and then have to take a deep breath. Loving this amazingly crazy journey! Hope she doesn't come back to school with another full meal deal! :)

Ugh. I probably would've been slightly jealous lol Last night was the worst for me. After my husband and I had our "adult time" he made 2 cheeseburgers with bacon & fried egg on top while i ate my punk ass yogurt :-( idk if it was emotions but I wanted to snatch his burger, take a bite and cry!

Lol he worked up an appetite:) I thought I was jealous and I really thought about it, but I was more irritated how bad the sound was listening to her eat and drink lol

Thanks for feed back everyone. I never imagined my emotions and anger towards strangers eating. My weakness is the smacking my boss smacks her gum. OMG!

      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!

      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!!
