I'm so sorry that happened to you. Some people can be so cruel. Just look at it that you are taking steps to change and that lady probably won't ever change her sad sorry self. From looking at your photo, you look like a beautiful lady..keep smiling and don't let that experience get you down.

I'm printing this post out and going to put it on my mirrors so that I see it every single day.

Hi Everyone: I agree, we all have our embarrassing, sorrow, depressing moments that we tend to hold on to. Atleast you are doing something about it. I once had a neighbor call me out to fight her by saying "Come over here you fat b*tch!" I responded "Honey I can fix fat, you can't fix ugly!" She had a fit and wanted to jump off her porch but her friends didn't let her but at the same time they were laughing. I later found out she was really ill in the hospital and nearly passed away. I wasn't happy about that but Karma is a byatch. The crazy part is that she was heavier than me. People see what they want to see. You are beautiful. Your child loves you, I'm sure you have people supporting you, if not we all are. Keep your chin up Lady. God created you and He loves you just the way you are, you are special in this world to more people than you think ;o)

wow...you let her walk away....just kidding....I know exactly how you feel.......judged by the shell is a pretty demeaning thing.......I had a guy once stop his car in front of my house to watch me garden in my front lawn....he told his wife that he would not even go outside if he looked like me.....and why can't I just lose it.....it made him sick to see me....and yet he stopped his car to watch me.....2 years later he came to my house...he was just a shell of a man...he had gotten very sick and now wanted to ask me to forgive him....I explained to him that what he did would be with me the rest of my life and that he humiliated me.....I asked why he thought he had a right to do that.......he said he never forgot the look on my face when he did that.......he told me that no one understands his illness and it made him more understanding of others....I told him that is good for you..but the damage was done...and that he was in danger of passing on his prejudice to his kids........I am sorry I did not let him off the hook............what these people do is disgusting behavior for human beings......... Being heavy is not for the faint of heart.................all of us have stories that tear at our hearts....I am just so sorry that you didn't punch her in the face........ People in here know that your a human being and a lovely one at that......don't let them bring you to the point where you don't move forward with your life.........you deserve to be you no matter what others say......feed on what she did in a positive way and move on.....your among friends here...

What a B! You should have take her out back! People are so rude. Just use this as determination to be more successful. You're gorgeous...

Congrats on Being approved. Im not gonna lie, I almost cried when i got the call and she said i was approved.

Congratulations I remember how excited I was when I got that phone call. Good luck girl. I just had my surgery almost 2 weeks ago now. I am still in the early stages but I just know that this was the best decision I could have ever made for myself.

I should be having my surgery in October, too. I have a couple of pre surgery app'ts this week and then I should be able to get it scheduled. Soon we will be losers!!! Yea for us!!

Hi, I was banded July 30th and have not had a fill yet. My weight has been within 1-3 lbs. for over a week. I have been trying on a pair of pants for over a month and today they zipper!!!! So my body has gone down in inches. I finally took measurements on 9/6 for the first time. My highest weight was in March. I have no idea how large I really was. Be patient, the weight took longer than one month to put on. At my support group last week a man who was banded last November is down 90! That is very encouraging.

im going next wed. for my sleeve, hope the time goes quick for you !!
