Bad Answers To Frequent Questions.....



Recommended Posts

To entertain myself I thought up bad answers to frequently asked questions posed to WLS people:

"Is the food OK?" (asked because you ate so little)

Oh, yes, I haven't had food this good since the Turkish prison.

"Isn't weight loss surgery the easy way out?"

Yes, it is. I was going to shoot everyone smaller than me to make myself look average but there is an ammo shortage.

"How did you get so fat in the first place?"

I was stranded on an island with a group of sumo wrestlers. I had the only gun. A year later I was the only one left.

"How could you afford this operation?"

Well, I got this e-mail from a Nigerian widow...

"How could you do this to yourself?'

I originally wanted to do it to you but couldn't get a Brazilian visa.

"How did you lose so much weight?"

I sent myself in a suitcase on American Airlines. They lost it.

"How did you get those scars on your belly?"

Picked up by a Pterodactyl.

You wise guys got any?

Do you miss the weight?

Yes, so much so that I am considering strapping a small child to my back just to recreate the old feeling...

Couldn't you have tried harder to lose weight ?

You are so right, 30 years just wasn't long enough to know if I could have done more.

Haven't you lost a lot of weight, you can see it's come off your face.

If you could tear your eyes away from my face, my arse is actually worth a look now

Heard at least five times in the first month post-op:

Q:"I thought you had weight loss surgery?"

A: "Yes, but they don't cut away 100 lbs of fat, just like they can't cut stupid out of you!"

And, some other favs:

Q: "How much are you going to lose? You are too skinny already."

A: "As much as I want to. Too bad I am now thinner than you and you need a new fat friend to make yourself feel better."

Q: "Are you allowed to eat that?"

A: "Are you my doctor?"

Lynda, just snorted my drink out my nose (in a coffee shop!) at your last answer. If I had a pound for every time one "friend" says "are you allowed that?" I would be rich. I think I have always been the fat friend that makes her feel better about her weight..

To date, what I want to say but could never say out loud is "When you weigh less than me, I might consider listening to you" but your answer would pull her right up!!!!

And Arts, not sure you are even on this planet, lol, but it's funny...

When I was in the losing phase someone (another mom at the school where my kids went) said to me:

"Girl what kind of crack coccaine are you on...because you are getting so skinny!"

I replied with:

"OMG, crack would have been soooooooooo much easier than what I did" :lol:

And then I didn't elaborate because we were just having the exchange in "passing"...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!!
