wwboy 141 Posted January 8, 2016 I've had some coworkers recently warn me "don't lose too much weight! I mean, you're a big guy. You need some weight on your frame." It's nice. Kind of. But it also made me feel a little angry. I mean, they obviously didn't care much when I was so heavy I had multiple medical conditions - but now, they want me to stay heavy? Why? So they can continue to feel superior to me for being in better health? So they don't have to change their mental picture of me if I'm thin? It's amazing how one person making a positive change can draw out dysfunction in everyone else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nurse_Lenora 903 Posted January 8, 2016 I would also, at the next party function beat them to the punch and announce your surgery. Put yourself before they do and give them a taste of their own medicine I say Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ilovecats1985 100 Posted January 8, 2016 I would also, at the next party function beat them to the punch and announce your surgery. Put yourself before they do and give them a taste of their own medicine I say I was talking to my husband today. He brought up his mom was planning to have another surgery. She's one of those people who if the dr says surgery is a last option she will push and push until she gets the surgery even if it's really not needed. She loves the attention and sympathy. Well my husband said his dad was telling him yesterday his mom has started mentioning WLS for herself. I knew that even tho my surgery was "stupid" she would eventually get jealous enough to try to go that route herself just for the attention. I told my husband part of me really wants to throw all her rude unkind words back in her face, but I'm not stooping to her level. I just won't say anything all Bc that will eat her up even more.
