I am posting to say that my daughter's stepmother is an idiot!!!!!!!!! She sent me an email because my daughter is with them for the week and they were planning to take all the kids to a Water park tomorrow. My daughters TOM arrived today. She has never worn tampons and is not comfortable with the idea of doing so. So, wicked stepmom says to me that I need to call my dd because she is refusing to wear a tampon and is going to ruin everything for everyone because of that. OK, first off, how is that going to ruin it for everyone else if she goes but chooses to just stay out of the water and get some sun instead? Secondly, my daughter is 15 years old. It is her body, her choice. If she chooses to wear tampons, fine, if she chooses not to, then that is fine as well. Evil stepmom asked me what kind of parent I am that I would allow something as silly as that to spoil their day? She said her daughter didn't want to wear them but after forcing her to for 5 months she finally got used to it. WTF??!!! I am not going to force my daughter to do something with her body that she doesn't want to. That is a personal choice for her to make and no one else.

OK, rant over. I just needed to get that off my chest.

I am constantly amazed by the audacity of people.

Wow what an insane beach!!!!! How old is this woman 20? I had a stepmonster when I was 17 and it was not fun. I lived with mine because my mother had died. At least your daughter has a normal mom to come home to! I could never be divorced because something like this would end up putting me in prison!! Vent all you like you know we'll support you here! brandyII:thumbup:

Thanks for the support guys. Her stepmom is about 37 years old. Before she started sleeping with my ex, we were actually best friends! After she had an affair with my husband while we were still married, she couldn't understand why our friendship couldn't continue. Yes, she is truly an idiot.

Just remember Karma is a bitch...she'll get her's one day. I had a friend that went through almost the exact same thing, her ex ended up cheating on the new wife too. She actually turned to my friend trying to get sympathy (they used to be best friends), needless to say, my friend told her to F-off, lol.

Susan, you're doing the right thing. My Mom never forced me to try tampons, but I did many years ago. I ended up choosing tampons once I did get used to them, but it was my choice.

Denise, that's what you call "in love loss"! LOL

Her dad is a big jerk too. For as long as I have known him, everything has been about him. He never thinks about anyone else, just himself. He doesn't care if he upsets his daughter, so long as she ends up doing what makes him happy. I am so glad I live two hours away from them. If I lived closer, I would probably do something I would regret later, lol.

ok ... my response is completely inappropriate, but this is R&R...

Susan,

i would tell her to try shoving a tampon somewhere she's never shoved one before and 'go have fun' at the Water park. after 8-10 hours of it there, then you'll talk to your DD and tell her what you think she should do...

It's amazing how clueless some "best friends" can be. After I caught my best friend lying on my loungeroom floor with my husband's little white bum going up and down between her legs, while I was HOME!!, she didn't get why I didn't want to be friends with her any more. I guess chasing her out of the house with a broom wasn't a big enough clue.

What was even funnier is that after my husband and I split and they got together, she used to ring me up and try to complain about his violence, emotional blackmail and manipulative controlling ways - and this was after watching how he had treated me for the previous several years, and even helping me talk him into staying at their house after parties because I was too scared to go home with him, knowing that he'd drunk enough that the "evil switch" in his head had been triggered.

My revenge was watching her disintegrate as a person, just by living with him :rolleyes2:. She was always an emotionally fragile woman and I couldn't understand how she could ever imagine that she could handle that life. After only a year with him, she ended up in a mental hospital with a complete nervous breakdown... so sad :rolleyes2::tongue2:.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
