I seriously could have slapped her



Recommended Posts

So I have to ask...Was the pretzel OK? LOL

Seriously though, I completely understand about being too dumbstruck to respond to someone else's stupidity. If it were me, given your situation, I think a private "chat" would be enough. (As long as the chat mentions some of the legal ramifications that could result.) BTW I think if Tony told Gibbs that he was going to report him to HR, my guess is that Gibbs would smack him harder? LOL (Gotta love an NCIS reference in a LAP-BAND® forum!)

So this morning at work myself and two of the other ladies in the office went to coffee break. One of them (the family nutrition program assistant) asks me how I'm doing with the band. I replied well right now I'm down 21lbs since pre-op diet (Sept 29th) and 35 lbs all together. I said, I get a fill on November 23rd, so that will add restriction as I have no Fluid in my band right now. I was having a few pretzels (I know probably not the best choice but that's what I had). Then I went to take a bite of my little pretzel stick thing and she smacked my hand that held the pretzel (literally 3 inches from my face) and said "well then you shouldn't be having that!"

Excuse me broad, you are NOT the one living with this band, you are NOT the one who went through the pre-op diet, all the testing, the surgery, the dehydration, and besides that if I want a bite of a damn pretzel I'm going to have it! :blushing:

I could NOT believe she did that. I was literally so dumbfounded I couldn't even reply. :w00t: I just ate my pretzels chewing very LOUDLY to annoy her! Sorry just needed to vent.

Well next time you see her snacking on something you should smack it out of her hand and say, "you shouldn't be eating that." Just saying

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
