Well that is an interesting inquiry. It depends on the person that says it to me. If the person is educated and open minded, I take the opportunity to educate and inform. If the person is of lower knowledge and close minded/shallow, I just ignore them. FatKellyRN>soontobe<SleeveKellyRN

I am on my 45gm carb restriction waiting for a surgery date for April. Today I woke up feeling very down. I feel like I am in a prison (obesity) and on work program to get released early (the Sleeves program). I work so hard and then I still am in this PRISON. This work release has no ending. I can Not see the light at the end of the tunnel. Is the prison warden just screwing with me. Is it just easier to give up and eat the French fries, cheese cake, the fettuccine Alfredo. My 5y daughter told me I am fat and that I have a fat belly. My husband told her to not say that and she said "well daddy she is fat" I went to my mom and dad (which are divorced and don't agree on anything ) mom thought it was funny and dad blamed me for teaching her that the word "fat" was exceptible word you say. Idk what to do. Of course it's Saturday. Rainy and I'm home by myself thinking about all of this over and over. Idk what to do. FatKellyRN>soontobe<SleeveKellyRN

I don't have a therapist but I have gone to support meeting. I was torn at what felt at that meeting. There were post op ppl that were great and then there were pre op ppl. A lot of them came in (>400lbs) bringing in McDonald cups and food. I felt like it was a betrayal to all the work we were doing. It was hard to sit there FatKellyRN>soontobe<SleeveKellyRN
