JustJenn 542 Posted September 7, 2012 I am really starting to hate "the look." Let me describe and I'm sure many can relate, you see someone they know about surgery or heard whatever... And you smile HI! and it comes..... The complete UP & DOWN and back to eye contact before they respond hi. I find it a little uncomfortable. Im only 6 weeks out you can see a change but I'm still big and don't know your expectations to MY wls. But everyone gives me the looks! Ugh!

Really people...really?!? Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PaulB 346 Posted September 10, 2012 People that don't know what we have to go though just to get approved for WLS and how hard it is after surgery. To bad they can't live in our shoes for a week to see what it's like Surgery Anniversary 7/30/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
