I'm sitting in class right now and there is a very obese woman sitting behind me eating a cheeseburger and 1/4 lb bag of fries and gulping on a huge soda. It's gross listening to her eat and gulp her soda.

I realized I used to eat and drink like this but dear God! I didn't realize until today I don't miss soda. I don't miss it all.

I feel horrible to be critical since I was as big as her. I think maybe I'm envious of not eating what is but I don't miss it and would be satisfied with a bite but she loud reaching loud. Ugh sorry needed to vent. Usually I was walk away but she is right behind me. :(

I felt the same way about a girl crunching on some potatoe chips today in class! In my mind I was saying how bad those chips are for her and if she only knew but I secretly wanted some lmao!

I find myself giving my husband looks while he's eating. Thinking are you really going to eat that second plate of spaghetti, really? Then I remind myself at least he eats slower than I did. I would had been done with my second plate 30mins ago! It's kinda ironic and scary!

Me too! Lol I ate super fast!!! But my thinking is awful and I have guilt for thinking and feeling this way. I felt like geez lady you don't need to eat all that. :/

But that's her path. I need to be less annoyed by the actions of others lol

I am right there with you Jenn! Thanks for reminding me to give others grace! I do find myself getting irritated easily, and then have to take a deep breath. Loving this amazingly crazy journey! Hope she doesn't come back to school with another full meal deal! :)

Ugh. I probably would've been slightly jealous lol Last night was the worst for me. After my husband and I had our "adult time" he made 2 cheeseburgers with bacon & fried egg on top while i ate my punk ass yogurt :-( idk if it was emotions but I wanted to snatch his burger, take a bite and cry!

Lol he worked up an appetite:) I thought I was jealous and I really thought about it, but I was more irritated how bad the sound was listening to her eat and drink lol

Thanks for feed back everyone. I never imagined my emotions and anger towards strangers eating. My weakness is the smacking my boss smacks her gum. OMG!

      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.
