making a public apology.



Recommended Posts

To the smokers. Sorry I called you dumb. I do know how to spell for the person who was ragging on my spelling. I`m using my phone and my thumb is way bigger than the buttons. Its comical because I am a teacher. Anyway, apologies to all.

I got "wadded up" because I did not appreciate being called dumb. But I really got "wadded up" because I was told I'm a militant smoker, I'm old, I smell, and I'm going to basically die soon.

So, yes, I think the apology was warranted and it is appreciated.

I was extra harsh with you. Was having a bad day. I read over the weekend that current smokers are 7 x as likley as non smokers to get anal cancer. So much is stacked against smokers. I read Farrah Fawcetts book, written by her bf and it was horrible what she went thru. Thats all Im gonna say on this subject. Lets put it behind us.

I have no idea what you posted, but as a former smoker, I hate it. My mom was a smoker, she died when she was 3 years older than I am now....from lung cancer. (she was 56) I continued to smoke for another five years. Quitting was the most difficult thing I've ever done, but boy, I feel so much better. It's been sixteen years and my intolerance to smoke and my sensitivity is shocking. I carry nose spray with me because if I happen to walk through cigarette smoke, or am near a smoker, I get all stopped up and cannot breath. I can smell a smoker just by passing them on the grocery isle and can smell it on someone who walks up to our door. I can't believe I went from smoking a pack a day to cigarette smoke triggering a Migraine many times. It's bizarre.

You are protected under the First Amendment. As a former smoker, I wish I had stuff like that to read. Been smoke free for over 5 yrs. the best. Irony though, you get sleeved to lose weight and be healthy but continue smoking which is just as bad. To each their own. Just ironic. :/

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
