Bad Answers To Frequent Questions.....



Recommended Posts

To entertain myself I thought up bad answers to frequently asked questions posed to WLS people:

"Is the food OK?" (asked because you ate so little)

Oh, yes, I haven't had food this good since the Turkish prison.

"Isn't weight loss surgery the easy way out?"

Yes, it is. I was going to shoot everyone smaller than me to make myself look average but there is an ammo shortage.

"How did you get so fat in the first place?"

I was stranded on an island with a group of sumo wrestlers. I had the only gun. A year later I was the only one left.

"How could you afford this operation?"

Well, I got this e-mail from a Nigerian widow...

"How could you do this to yourself?'

I originally wanted to do it to you but couldn't get a Brazilian visa.

"How did you lose so much weight?"

I sent myself in a suitcase on American Airlines. They lost it.

"How did you get those scars on your belly?"

Picked up by a Pterodactyl.

You wise guys got any?

Do you miss the weight?

Yes, so much so that I am considering strapping a small child to my back just to recreate the old feeling...

Couldn't you have tried harder to lose weight ?

You are so right, 30 years just wasn't long enough to know if I could have done more.

Haven't you lost a lot of weight, you can see it's come off your face.

If you could tear your eyes away from my face, my arse is actually worth a look now

Heard at least five times in the first month post-op:

Q:"I thought you had weight loss surgery?"

A: "Yes, but they don't cut away 100 lbs of fat, just like they can't cut stupid out of you!"

And, some other favs:

Q: "How much are you going to lose? You are too skinny already."

A: "As much as I want to. Too bad I am now thinner than you and you need a new fat friend to make yourself feel better."

Q: "Are you allowed to eat that?"

A: "Are you my doctor?"

Lynda, just snorted my drink out my nose (in a coffee shop!) at your last answer. If I had a pound for every time one "friend" says "are you allowed that?" I would be rich. I think I have always been the fat friend that makes her feel better about her weight..

To date, what I want to say but could never say out loud is "When you weigh less than me, I might consider listening to you" but your answer would pull her right up!!!!

And Arts, not sure you are even on this planet, lol, but it's funny...

When I was in the losing phase someone (another mom at the school where my kids went) said to me:

"Girl what kind of crack coccaine are you on...because you are getting so skinny!"

I replied with:

"OMG, crack would have been soooooooooo much easier than what I did" :lol:

And then I didn't elaborate because we were just having the exchange in "passing"...lol

      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.
