So my new hasn't been feeling right. So I called the company to come in and look at it since it's so new and I had an appointment for today. Last night as well while I was sleeping I heard a crackle. They come in today, and they remove mattress and box spring. The woods on my side of the bed snapped. Just my side. The guy and my husband were very discreet and repaired it but I know it was due to my weight. I am so nervous about this surgery but today my choice is clear. I'm so embarrassed.

We have all had our moments with weight. You are not alone in this!! Consider it a sign that your decision is right for you and let it give you even more strength.

There are many, many things that are not made for people like us. I once got stuck in a little car that rolled down a hill. This skinny little Japanese man helped me out of it while everyone else was laughing their heads off. I looked up at the crowd and bowed as if I did it on purpose those bunch of $%#^&. That was the last time I did anything that I was not 100% sure fit me, would hold me or carry me....

Society is not made for the majority of people who believe it or not is over weight people. It is a rejection. The last taboo in the world I think...

You have made the decision to help yourself and live to be with family and friends...You are going to be impressed with how many things will fit you in the near future and not break......Keep a log! :)

Go girl go, you got this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let it roll off your back. All of us here have had experiences like that at one time or another. I promise you will be able to laugh at this down the road. I remember one time sitting in my parent's porch swing and pulling the swing with me in it from its hinges to the ground. I was so embarrassed I wanted to cry. My husband and dad kept trying to make me feel better by saying there was something wrong with the chains while my step mother just kept going on and on about how much I weighed and shouldn't be sitting in the porch swing. I've never sat in another of their swings since. I think your Guardian Angel was sending you a message saying that yes, this surgery is going to help you, don't be nervous. I believe in signs and that was a positive one. Sending you positive vibes and lots of hugs. You can do this and you will be so happy with yourself.

Oh my!!! This happened to me too! Like 5-6 times until my husband put up his own board on my side. I forgot about it until you reminded me. It does help make things more clear. Or you have a cheap bed frame! I've been there.

I once bent over in a shop to pick up my daughter's pacifier and my big butt knocked a line of glasses off a shelf. Every single one of them smashed. I was so embarrassed, when the store clerk came to help, I claimed my daughter had done it. :(

I recently flew for work and could not buckle the belt. So I tried to hide it under my jacket. When they went around to check belts this skinny stewardess totally called me out and screamed for a seat belt extender from the back of the plane. I wanted to DIE and take that b***h with me. I never want to feel that way again.

Thanks guys..It really does help to know someone else knows how I feel. It was hard today and my husband tried to blame the company..and the inspector was also really nice, and said they just "dont' make things like they used to". It sucks...Hopefully this will be the last time I feel this way.

You're not alone. I broke my bed as well (the box spring, just on my side). Now I basically sleep on my mattress on the floor. But not since surgery since I would never be able to get up, I've been sleeping in my recliner.

I broke a chair in a nail salon in front of a whole bunch of skinny women who all laughed. Of course I laughed with them but was mortified on the inside. To make matters worse the chair I actually sat down in and broke was the nail techs chair, I was sitting on the wrong side!! Talk about feeling stupid and ashamed of my weight too!

I'm so sorry any of us feel this pain. Unless you experience the Shane you can't understand it.

And when I try to explain this to my family they just don't understand. They are trying to talk me out of this. Being 40 pounds overweight is NOT the same as being 150 pounds overweight. I am getting my clearance letters from the Cardio and Pulm as I type. Appointment w the psych and NUT on Wednesday. Hopefully I get a date that day!!! We all deserve the success this surgery can provide.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
