I want to stop hearing that little voice in my head that tells me I'm too fat to enjoy things...

Do you really think you should have that?

It's not that hard to lose weight.

You could just try taking the stairs and parking farther away.

You should try this diet, that diet, etc

I know some of those they're trying to be nice, but...I dunno. Just because I'm fat doesn't mean I wanna hear your every diet tip without asking for it =\

I think I'm most looking forward to not getting the looks and judgments. Those things really stick with you. I have been lucky not to get a ton in the past couple years, but about six months ago a car full of teenage boys drove past me and they yelled "Hey!" and then all started laughing/pointing at me. Or when i actually was losing weight a couple years ago and had worked out one morning I took the elevator up a floor at school cause I was beat and the people walking behind me made a remark about how I should be taking the stairs.

I will not miss those comments a bit.

Unfortunately, people will always have something dumb to say. I told a friend I was wanting to lose weight. Their advice was to stop eating. Yeah, okay. Then I told a friend I was contemplating WLS. Then I was told that a friend of his sister's friend's uncle's mistress had it and it didn't work. (face palm). At the seminar I just went to, the guy giving testimony said when he started to lose weight, his office began whispering he may have cancer.

So, I think there will always be a stupid statement out there. But I agree with the above comment that shutting up that mean little bully in our head will be the sweetest reward.

Everybody else may kiss my thinner hindquarters.

I had a 4yr old ask me..."Why are your legs so big?" Was so glad I was on my way to getting WLS.

Yeah my size 6 (Australian) boss cant understand why I can't do it on my own and thinks I should try harder. "Like I haven't been on a diet MY WHOLE LIFE". Everyone is begging me not to get WLS and to try everything first. I feel like saying "You don't think I have done that?" Grrr. So frustrating!

It's not what people say, it's the looks of OMG, look at her a**., the making a wide arc when walking around me, the feared look on their face when I go to sit down on one of their chairs. :(

Ugh, I hate it when foreigners act like there are no fat people from their country and that obesity is unique to the USA. Obviously stupidity isn't.

I'm hearing you Laura, my sister is a size 16- Australian- and going up...yet was very much against the surgery at first, saying things like I'm just lazy and need to walk more often. She doesn't believe in the surgery thinking that it is not necessary- yet I have watched her struggle with her weight- ranging from a size 18 to a size 10 and everything inbetween from when she was a teenager. I seriously thought she would understand where I was coming from!

      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.
