I wish my surgery was tomorrow!

Hi All,

This is the first time that i am writing on the boards. I am a happily married mother of 3 girls and i have battled my weight up and down my whole life. I lost 50 pounds by diet and exercising and quickly gained it back....so i am 3 pounds away from my all time highest. I dont get banded until 11/9/11 and it seems so far away! I am so tired of the fat rollercoaster and just want to get off the dang ride! Would you believe that a man i work with had the gaul to say "Hey are you Preggo"?? in front of someone else. I poliely said no....he then goes on to say "REALLY" he was one of the people who told me how great i looked when i lost the 50 pounds! i said yes i am sure...i am just FAT! i didnt know what else to say to that honestly. I am just sick and tired of being sick and tired. My doc does not give a pre op diet...after the pregnancy remark i think i will start one! How is everyone doing?

Hang in there.. I 6 ft tall and I'm a big girl.. I hear people snicker behind my back.. I have been going through this process since Feb and I'm so ready to get this weight off. I have only told my husband, my dad, and 1 friend. I don't want anyone to know because I hear people say that we are taking the easy way out. This is so not easy.. This is going to be a ruff road and the hardest decsion I have had to make. I get upset when people tell me I put it on by myself and I should take it off by myself.. I'm awaiting my insurance approval and hopefully within the next month I will finally have my surgery.

Thanks I will. I am telling a select few also. I lost 50 pounds last year with diet and exercise and was down to a size 12! I gained it all back once again! A guy at work asked me if I was pregnant!! I am so tired of the yo yo coaster..I start to think people enjoy my failure of not keeping the weight off.
