  1. Went to store, used a mortozied cart (because of my ACL knee surgery TWO weeks ago). My teenager was Mortified. Saying that this was like my "600 lb life) and that I needed to lose weight (duh, WLS planned for Nov). I laughed it off, but also realized that if I don't have surgery/lose weight, I am headed for motorized cart & how hard it would be. :(

      @WLSResources/ClothingExch LOL! You made me laugh out loud here in my quiet apartment. Thanks for that!

       

      @Anna Nim I had the same surgery 2 months ago! Well that, plus a meniscus repair and a meniscus trim. But a few months ago in San Diego, we went to the zoo, and my knee was so messed up that my boyfriend and aunt convinced me to get a scooter so I could see the whole zoo. I was pretty mortified too, especially when strangers stopped in their tracks to stare/glare at me or even confront me and tell me "I should be walking!" I weighed about 250 at the time, so I was definitely overweight but in no way "600 pound life" large. People are going to be ridiculous/ignorant/judgmental no matter what, so do what you need to so you can recover and ignore the a-holes! Teenagers are, as a whole, incapable of ignoring them, hence the mortification. :P Hope your knee heals well and quickly!

      This was one of the reasons I decided to have surgery - I pictured myself having to ride around in a hoveround by age 50! :-(

      You guys are cracking me up! Mow The Kid down indeed!!

      I would SO smack a person who actually SAID I should be walking! Those are the same fools that tell women to breastfeed in the restroom. Luckily, at 5 10 and resting bitch face, I never had to do that :)

      I just need to do PT..like right now! I need the strength to stop wearing the brace, but since it is hard to move around, it is a pain.

      @Cervidae I also had mensicus repair and trim. They shaved all the fuzzy off my bones. Ick City!

      Thanks ya'll!
