Rich for this poll is being able to buy and pay for anything you want for the rest of your life.

Poor is to have basically nothing but enough to eat and a place to live.

Funny! Well, if I were rich I could afford a personal trainer, a personal chef, and all the cosmetic surgery I wanted. So realistically I could become skinny in just a matter of time. However, if I were skinny but poor, a handsome prince could find me and sweep me away to his magical kingdom. Thus, I would in turn be rich.

However, if we are not living in fairy tale land and we are talking absolute reality then...skinny and poor, no question. I've got the poor thing down, just working on the skinny thing. LOL!!! :thumbup:

If we changed the word skinny to healthy, I'd choose healthy and poor without a doubt.

But like everyone said, if I was rich - I could afford to get skinny!:thumbup:

Haha like Bea, I've got the poor part down, just got to get the skinny. So my answer is definitely skinny and poor. Money doesn't buy happiness!

Yeah, but look at Oprah! I hear that she has a nickel or two squirreled away, and she doesn't seem to be able to buy her way out of the "fat zone"!:thumbdown:

I'll pick healthy and poor.

I remember seeing a show about lottery winners once. They all had one thing in common after winning huge lotteries - they all got fat!

I love my band and my new flat tummy!

Egads, that's a hard one. I went with rich and fat because like people said, I could afford to take care of myself. Besides, other than the weight itself, some very mikld sleep apnea, and some occasional back spasms, I don't suffer from any other health problems at the moment and yesterday was the first time I weighed in not morbidly obese since college.

Although, I think it's easier for me to imagine being rich than skinny. If I ever knew what skinny felt like, I might decide differently.

Ok, if you pick rich and fat, you don't get to have any surgery....you have to know that you will stay fat....

Oppps, that changes things? Maybe?

      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.
