I wanted to punch her in her naturally skinny face!

People who have always been thin truly don't understand. My mom's highest weight' date=' 9 months pregnant was 117. She can be insensitive at times, but she truly doesn't understand. Just ignore that woman. Or, you could buy her that book by Judge Judy, "Beauty Fades. Dumb is Forever."[/quote']

IM GETTING THAT BOOK ASAP,

I'd have said I might be fat but your ugly and I'm loosing weight. And if that didn't work I'd just say F off.

Someday that said Co worker will be fat.

Still the skinny girls from HS are now fat and all the fat ones are skinny.

Ignorance comes from uneducation. A non-WLS person will never understand what we go through. Keep you're head up, this decision is for YOU.

I bet if you shaved your beard, you would be just as skinny as her.

Ever think of that?

I would say to her: you cannot judge someone's situation unless you've been it. She has never been fat, never had the diet you grew up on, food addiction, stressors, contributory mental & health problems, faced the negative social situations we've all been in, etc. Try to understand that the majority of people are (ie Facebook b***h/neighbor) uneducated & lack empathy. At least fat people take the time to develop likeable personalities. I think that criticism from others is a huge factor in weight gain & trouble losing.

Stay strong!!!

then slash her tires& steal her husband.

I've been totally upfront at work about my surgery and today one of my coworkers was being just...super insensitive....she's one of those people that weighs about 90 pounds soaking wet and she can't believe "how crazy someone would have to be to have surgery to lose weight"...I just wanted to punch her!!! But I didn't...I just calmly explained to her that my decisions have been made with a very sound mind...b***h.

She's also one of those people who has a super high pitched voice that I freaking hate...everytime she talks it's like nails on a chalkboard.

Ok rant over!

I haven't told a lot of folks for that same reason. We all know our limits, I hit mine and decided another diet was not it. I needed help and my surgery will be just the help I need.

There truly is an idiot in every crowd.

I saw a bumper sticker that I love. "Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're an *******." Sorry if that's rude. Made me laugh.

[jaxmommy2012 21]

well what I think (because I know everyone is just biting their nails waiting for my opinion lol jk) is that we as a group should take all the insensitive tan skinny people stuff them in a closet and force feed them twinkies. hahhahaha that is the best revenge. people shouldn't talk about things they don't know. walk a sweaty, short breathed, exhausted mile in our shoes and see how u feel!! grrrrr. (ive run into some of that lately as well)
