If I hear this one more time , I am going to scream ! I get this everyday of my life and I am so sick of it ! " your such a pretty thick big girl" or what not ... People ... I am 5"1 ! 248.6 pounds and I feel every bit of it ! We all carry our weight differently ! Geez ... Ugh ... Anyone else feel like this ???

That is close to my measurements. You are doing the surgery for you and that is all that matters. We all have our own self image and if yours is 100 pounds lighter than who cares what anyone else says. This journey is hard enough with your own personal demons please dont let anyone else give you theirs! Stay strong!!!

I agree with you... Right up there with you have a pretty face.... WTF is wrong with people?

I have been hearing that a lot lately. "You don't look that heavy, you didn't need to have surgery" Looks are deceiving, and I felt that heavy. Not only that, this surgery helped with lots of other issues I was having. I have become a pro of changing the subject at this time. Otherwise I get really annoyed.

Oh yes I hear this all the time considering I am 5'10, most people never believed me when i said i weighed 304, they said i carried it well, what the hell does that mean????? I am doing this not only for the weight but to get off the 12 medications that i am on, I am only 34 years old and I WAS on 2 different blood pressure medications to keep my blood pressure down. The key word is WAS I am off my bp meds and am only taking 3 prescribed meds to date, they rest are vitamins! That my friend is a reason to have the surgery!!!

I get this all the time, some people even go as far as to use their X-ray vision and tell me things like "you're just big boned". WTF? I've also been told by a number of people that I won't logo as good thinner! Do these people really think about what they're saying.

I'm actually not that big. I weigh 260 and I'm 5'8 with a BMI of 39 and 36 years old. However I'm on 2 blood pressure medications and now borderline diabetic.

I've had my niece tell me before I had the surgery if I was pregnant and I was so embarrassed and I really do have a large body frame and big bones my Dr. Told me that he said my goal weight I'd 160 for my height I'm 5 ft 8 in and 185

[americas_suiteheart 53]

I too have a large Frame but my Dr. Told me that I'd I went anything below 140, I'd look sickly . Lol and my goal is 147 !
