I have been back to work for 2 days now and my co-workers are killing me. Not only do they sit and eat ALL DAY LONG...chips, dip, pizza, snacks, etc, etc. but they can't be satisfied with just eating, they have to talk about it ALL DAY LONG too. Even the old me, although I did overeat, I did not sit and talk about food all the time. And I certainly think I would have more consideration for someone who had just had weight loss surgery and was starving on a liquid diet. Sorry, I just had to vent. :angry

Yep, it definitely won't be long before you go 'my god, how can they eat like that/all of that'. I am finding myself disgusted all the time at what a pig my husband is.. or at a restaurant watching others eat.. skinny people, fat people, doesn't matter. Anyone without bariatric surgery eats SO MUCH and SO FAST.

And until April of this year, I had no idea.

It's shocking, isn't it? I mean, until I was banded, I'd keep up with the best of them. I look at my parents and friends now and wonder how in the world I used to suck down that much food. People eat so much more than they really need to survive. I'll eat with my parents, and my dad will eat a huge portion of lasagna, garlic bread, veggies. And then he'll go for the ice cream or cookies. It's really mind-boggling. :faint:
