Congratulations and speedy recovery. I don’t know you but you have been cheering everyone on since I been on here and now it’s our turn to cheer u on! 

Mine was the 23rd. I'm still struggling to get in all the protein but doing well otherwise.

It hurts my feelings, of course. But I will never let them win. I would never eat something to make someone else happy, not any more.

Maybe it's time for you to not be so courteous and give them back what they are giving to you... I mean, they set the playing field, might as well play by their rules. Every time they make a bad choice, let them know. They might finally stop razzing you about your choices when you start giving it back to them about their choices. Your dad seems more like just lack of information and concern. I mean, unless they turned your uterus into a water park slide LOL And actually being too overweight can prevent conception, I know someone personally that just can't have kids simply because she's overweight to the point where her hormones are so messed up that she can't conceive.

At least he's consistent

And now as I enter my Final 24 hours I am emotionally ready, secure,in my plans and decisions. If, as the old saying says IT AIN'T OVER UNTIL THE FAT LADY SINGS. listen as I burst into song 🎶listen for the words, listen for,the song , for this melody,is mine and mine alone!

I've noticed that people assume all kinds of things about me now. I've mentioned needing to walk to a place because I have walked long distance in a few days, and people assume it's specifically for lossing more weight. I have to explain the benefits of walking beyond weight loss for anyone to be satisfied with my reasons. So disturbing. People constantly tell me now that I don't need to lose more weight. Many don't know I had WLS and must be thinking I'm trying really hard. I'm not. I think people assume I have a new found eating disorder. Not present. Debatable but i'm not specifically actively trying for more weight loss (fat loss, muscle growth yes), I'm just letting my body find it's range. I comfortable where I am, I can stay here or go lower ,my body will pick but I'm not making an effort to stop lossing either. I think people are obsessed with my weight loss and think I am also. I'm not. It's so weird, it's all anyone around me wants to talk about. What assumptions have you found/do you believe are being made about you? Are they spot on or way off?

I totally agree. And my earlier response was typed before you mentioned that it was a "mean girls clique". That certainly makes a difference.

I don't know how I managed to stay modest after having 4 kids, but I did. In fact, when you have twins, anyone who's not busy on the floor comes to watch. There were probably a dozen people with a bird-eye view of my hoo-ha, by the time I delivered. For all I know, even the custodian got an eye-full!

Survey says, "Loose skin!!!!!" I'd rather be a melted candle all the live-long-day than be the size I was bwl (before weight loss). I was so sick, and in so much pain it wasn't even funny. It stopped me from living!!! I'm only just now getting to the point of being able to do more things--loose skin and all!
