these stories are to funny. the one about the old guy is just horriable. man oh man, the things i would still be doing to that jerk off. God forbid that happened to me and i managed to get a hold of his address. oh, it would be onnnnnnnnnn.....i hate wal mart to . i also hate cell phones. i mean, HATE, HATE, HATE cell phones. i don't own one, never have, never will. it is something about them that , well, besides the wrecks i have almost been in by people talking on them while driving, that makes me go insane. i can be shopping and of course, down every lane, you have two or 10 people standing around with their buggies blocking the way for other customers while they are talking on their cell. i have to admit, when i say excuse me and they dont' budge cause they are to busy being inconsiderate and talking on the damn phone, i have rammed quite a few with my buggy. i just ram them and keep on going. man i hate those cell phones. i guess i am one of those crazy wal mart shoppers. :)

I hate cell phones, too, and refuse to have one even though my husband would like me to have one.

Talking about Wal Mart, I think your theory holds Water. My wife was driving down the main aisle of our local Wal Mart and this older man shoots out of a side aisle and almost hits her. She continues on out to make a left onto the main road and he chases her, drives around her right and makes a left to cut her off. He proceeds to yell at her for not giving him the right of way and that he is a retired police officer and knows the laws, blah, blah, blah. She was so in shock that she didn't know how to react!

This SAME thing happened to me in a Wal-Mart parking lot!! It was some older man driving thru the parking lot as opposed to up and down the aisles, he almost t-boned me and then he was yelling and shaking his finger at me. I turned my car around and went and found him as he was walking into the store. I told him that those big yellow arrows that point UP and DOWN are the way you are supposed to drive thru the parking lot not across it like he was. He told me that I wasnt even watching where I was going. I told him that I was driving correctly, he was not therefore I did not have to watch where I was going. He said something about calling the cops and I told him fine by me, lets call them and see who was driving incorrectly in the parking lot, I am willing to risk getting a ticket, are you? He just glared at me, called me a bitch and started into the store. I called him an old ignorant MF that needed his license revoked and I drove off. As I am driving off my mother (who was with me) who had been silent thru the whole ordeal leans over and yells DUMBASS as I am driving off. I was livid. I am 31 years old, have been licensed since I was 16 and have NEVER had a ticket for ANYTHING. I can not stand for someone who is clearly breaking traffic laws to tell me that I can not drive. I dislike going to Wal-Mart but DH and I have 4 kids so we are constantly there. I had a pharmacist get smart with me b/c I asked him why he had to call the other pharmacy when I was transferring a prescription(I honestly did not know why he had to call them) and he scoffed, rolled his eyes and said "b/c you cant have 1 prescription at two different stores AND I have to verify that you still have refills". I said you know what Patrick? Give me my damn pill bottle back, he did and I said you can take that phone and shove it directly up your ass you dickhead!

I can relate to the self-restraint, PIX, I have little kids too and have had to control myself. Good job!

Hey Pix, maybe you'll be lucky enough to run into her again at the store and really let

her have it. Get our your mace!

Oh, and colostomy boy....I would do some seriouse stalking of the Wal Mart handicap parking spaces to search him out.

      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!

      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.
