I'm back in Australia from my home in Indonesia for my niece's wedding next week and am staying at my son and daughter-in-law's home while I am there

My Granddaughter - 5 years old - said to me last nite - "Grandpa, I can sit on your knee now cause your tummy is not there any more"

Not to be outdone - 8 year old Grandson says - "Hey Grandpa - you're not fat any more"

I asked if I was not fat then what was I

He thinks for a minute and proudly announces that "You're not fat - you're FRUMPY"

From henceforth I am now known as Grandpa Frumpy :P:rolleyes:

When my nephew was a toddler he would try to pick things up that were to heavy. Like his baby brother. My sister would say "that's to big and heavy for you to pick up". He would then ask her to pick up what ever he wanted to move. He would say "Big and Heavy Momma pick it up!" My sister has always been a normal weight so I know this had to really irritate her!

Too cute. When my dad had his surgery my son who was 5 at the time and hadn't seen my dad for a while after the surgery went up and hugged him and said "your not my fat papa any more' I was horrified, but my dad took it all in stride and asked "well who am I?" My son instantly replied "your my skinny papa" to which my dad is known to this day 5 years later.

:rolleyes: I love these stories!!! Kids are really amazing with the names they come up with! In our family, we have a grandma kitty kat (she has a cat), a regular grandmom (she doesn't have a cat), and grandmom nay nay (she has horses!)

I would be flattered to be called the Frumpy, or Skinny or etc. when I used to be the fat one!! I guess my day will come...

      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. 🤞
