I agree with you totally people in my eyes suck the make jokes and call us names and it hits me right to the bone we all have weaknesses and i swear people see right through, for me i have no problem speaking up for myself i refuse allowing someone crossing my boundaries or put your hands on me , no way that aint going to happen, anyway enough of my babbling you deserve better in life we all do , just because , like you said , just because were fast does not someone the right to disrespect us i can tell by your typing and the words you used that you're very sensitive and that's ok so am i i am very sensitive but I'll go along minding my business and if someone makes a snide remark i lose it i don't like that side of me neither does my wife she takes the brunt of it when i am angry i eat i guess eat to comfort myself now look what i did to myself.😎

No it does NOT i asked that same question to my PCP and she said and i quote no it does its the result to of drinking to much fluid and it sits in your stomach waiting to pee the excess fluid(s) in your case to much to drink.😊 COOP

One thing most of us learned is we are not as unique, nor are we as alone as many of us thought. I couldn't agree with you more i still feel alone because this eating has ballooned up to 289 lbs and its depressing (please don't think I'm a doom and gloom kind of guy because I'm not I'm actually a pretty funny guy who loves to love)i know now that i am a part of this awesome community it can only get better from here right.

Thank you for the advice i will definitely talk with her next week !😊

I liked your analogy about am i being reckless through food that is something i never thought about, good point. I have never talked to my therapist about food but i will now that you have planted the seed , BIG GOAL and reason for this SX is i have a really bad back and by having this SX it will take a lot of weight off my back(lower back), not to drastically change the topic but you are very , anyhow i'm from Massachusetts where are you from i swear the older i gert the more i hate the cold in the snow and not in that order LOL. I seriously do not think i am reckless i am not saying i could not become as such but i think i am pretty honest , i have a great life and i love it and i am real excited about my being in the procces of waiting for the SX my wife as a matter of fact had gastric bypass a long time ago (95) she tries to tell me some info but it was so long ago that she doesn't want to mislead me and i can't you know what i mean.

Yes i have been in counseling for almost 9 yrs

Grider it sounds like you have had it rough. i too hope you get your life back it stinks to go through pain , i wish you well mam.☺️

Where it says "my surgery" i want to fill that in , all the questions i cant find the button to fill it out any help to show me how to do this would be great,😎

Thank you very much i finally found it , you're the best😎 Coop

First of all you are NOT a failure you are doing what makes you happy and getting healthy if they cant see that then its on them the name calling and making you feel like you have nothing to offer they are dead wrong i'm proud of you and you should be proud you losing weight is not at all easy so try and be gentle with you and do your best to ignore them and if they have nothing nice to say to you then just walk away tune them out and act as though they dont exist, take are of yourself and remember you're worth it plus they sound jealous because of all the hard work you know they see you're doing, keep in touch if you want , it would be nice to make friends and chat with, plus i am brand new on here, take care...😎

How do i fill out the info on the left hand side of this page regarding my weight , my location etc its the info us users fill out use to let you in on mour personal lives.

I am brand new here and i would like to do as im told ,my PCP put in a consult for me on wednesday , i went through pre screening procces and passed , is there anything you can reccomendwhile i go through this long proccesi would truly appreciate it

Someone asked me in this post what surgery will i be getting and honestly i have no idea as i mentioned my PCP put in the consult a few days ago thats about all i know at this point , i have a virtual interview April 1st. My wife as a matter of fact had gastric bypass 17 years ago and she tries to help me with what i could possibly be up against but it has been so long she does not want to mislead me or give me wrong information , anyway i am pretty scared because even though i have had both my hips replaced about 10 years ago i was told this surgery is more invasive i honestly do not know who to believe , i just know that i am uncomfortable in my clothes and if they fit they are extremely tight ( by the way i am 284 lbs and i am 5'7 } i am so obsessed with losing weight that i take all the weight loss pills and they do not work , i go on the cleanse juices, they do not work, i can not work out because i have a bad back, i am at my wits end it is so frustrating being heavy i am so self conscious of my weight i try on my clothes all the time, i apologize for rambling i am so tired of living like this , can anyone relate , thank you for listening , it helps.
