When idiots like this come into my life I have learned' date=' it too some time, to say a pray asking God to give that person all the good and great things I would want in my life and then I go on living and don't think about the jerk any more.[/quote']

Thank you for the advice. I guess you're right, I have to believe there is SOME good in everybody, even mean-spirited people.

I'm sorry that you had to encounter this idiot. I know the world is full of them!!! I always tell myself remember where the remark came from. I notice that people who like to talk about others or be rude are the ones with issues and need to be that way to deflect the attention on themselves. You are doing great Don't let anyone make you think different !!! Hugs

Apologies for resurrecting the thread.

My feeling is you know you have made it when you have an altercation like that and they don't say anything about your weight. Being fat is such an easy target that people invariably zero in on it.

No apologies needed. Actually, I wanna THANK you for resurrecting it. It's good to remember from time to time where we were only a few months back. Yes, obese ppl are easily targets and society encourages that with their silence & not standing up for others.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
