I have heard this since I was a little girl!! So done with it. How does anyone think this is a compliment? To me it means, you would be a lot prettier if you weren't so fat! Just come out and say it. These are the people I will think about while kicking some butt at that class!! I hope I survive it!

I get both. You have a pretty face but you're fat. Why don't you do something about it? Man, if only they knew!

Lord we need a club because I've gotten that too. Why oh why can't someone just say "Wow your very pretty". It has to always be "wow you gave a very pretty face". As if nothing else extra on me exists lol.

I had an old lady come up to me randomly and tell me how beautiful I am and how I remind her of her daughter. Sweet right? Yeah, then she goes on to say how her daughter has a weight problem too and did these special shakes and lost over 40 pounds! I laughed because I didn't know how else to react to that. Pretty face club member all the way. Should we get jackets? Members only?

That's terrible! When I was pregnant with my son I was in the drs office and two old women were sitting behind me and were saying it was appalling how much weight women gain these days while pregnant and it was a shame I let myself go while pregnant because I had such a pretty face! I was soooooo uncomfortable in the waiting room that day! ( I did gain almost 100 pounds while pregnant with my son, I had preeclampsia and they didn't finally catch it till a week after I had him)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
