Are you seriously going to walk into my office and call me a "cheater"???? Because I added a few years to my life? Because I prevented myself from getting diabetes, having heart problems, of death? Your arm was amputated and you wear a prosthetic ... Does that make you a cheater???

He stands there and says, I'm sorry. You look amazing.

You should have snatched his arm off and beat him over the head with it!

Congrats on the cigs, too!

I have had several people at work comment on how "easy this is for you" or "it sure is coming off fast." "Aren't you glad you took the easy way?" (my personal favorite)

I just look at them and say, "care to join me at the gym tonight while I sweat my ass off on the elliptical for 30 minutes and then weight lift for another 45? Or how would you like to join me in eating my 3 oz serving of Protein while surrounded by people in the cafeteria who are eating fried corn dogs, onion rings and homemade chocolate cake?"

That usually shuts them up.

People need to mind there business, some people just hate to see people happy so they want you to join them in there own misery.

People said that to me after I had a c-section with my first child. Easy way?! I went through 36 hours of labor and at the last moment the doctor came in and said we need to do a c-section. I couldn't even have ice chips for two days after that surgery, I swelled up like a balloon from the IVs and I had an infection in the incision. I cried for three days and begged them to take out the IVs so that I could stop swelling. So they did and punished me with huge needles they shot in my bum that I can still feel to this day. Easy? Slap those people for me.

      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.
