I'll introduce myself first. My name is Sherri and I'm a 38 year old nurse. I'm pre-op hoping to have my sleeve done as a self pay in Mexico next summer. I have been lurking on this site and watching people YouTube success videos for about a year now, and I am hopeful that I will be as successful as all you inspirational "losers" someday soon.

Anyhoo, so my friend and I were at the mall today walking by this elderly couple when I notice them both staring at my abdominal region in a very rude, and disgusted way. So I just stared back at them to let them know they were busted and I didn't appreciate their rudeness. How did you guys handle rudeness when you were at your heaviest?

I was actually feeling pretty cute today but of course I felt crappy after that. I'm sure they didn't mean anything by it but they looked like they were staring at like the fattest person they had ever seen! Now I am morbidly obese but I have feelings also! Plus I know there's that slim sexy me waiting to come out soon so I'm not gonna let it get me down. But dang!

A friend of my cousin saw me a few months ago at my heaviest, and was nice, but I turned around for a second and caught him looking at me in a disgusted way. I felt so hurt. My self esteem got crushed even more than it already had. I even felt embarrassed and ashamed because the last time he saw me I was slim. Then, when I left the room, I heard him ask my cousin what happened to me and my cousin told him that I'm fine, but I've just been goin through a rough patch lately.

I can't wait to see him again in a few months and show off! And ill look at him in a disgusted way because hes disgusting on the inside! That prick! I just hate people who judge like that.

I've never been one to handle judgment from other well though. Tryin to change that!

No one defines you, but you. Screw the ignorant folks out there!
