wishes for the big bootie fairy....
I wish that every pound that i lose or anyone loses after WLS could be magically placed on the backside of the people who used to look and whisper about us before we lost the weight,
to add a few chins to the people who say we cheated by having WLS,
and i wish the fairy would come and deposit all extra pounds it took from me right on the bootie of the captain of cheerleading 
and finally i want the fairy to cause any man who said before we were not worth looking at before the WLS to need viagra and viagra gets banned from the market the next day. 
(just venting because someone i know said i took the easy way out and had WLS, but the funny thing is that she is trying to get approval to have it done, and i hope the deny her!)

ooo harsh there girl 
I know how you feel it hurts and makes us angry when people tell us we took the easy way out. But I wouldnt wish obesity on anyone and wish that someone would be denied. Imagine if that were us! Yikes! 
I guess to her it looks easy because initially it comes off fast. At that point its not so much easier since we are going through a healing process and have been sliced and diced...but it sure was "easier" than it is now!!!... You should have said... yeah it was a little easier in the beginning but NOW ITS HARD! Because for me it sure is!!! Whew!!! Its like ... back to the drawing board. Educate these people! Thats what I do... Don't let their ignorance (ignorance meaning lack of knowledge) about wls get to you.
I can't say... having weight loss surgery wasnt easier than trying on my own...because it was easier to have weight loss surgery and loose that initial 100 pounds... Hence the whole REASON for having the surgery... because everything else I tried FAILED ... miserably.
Hey we all do what we need to do for OURSELVES...not for these people who make their obtuse comments you know? Hang in there girl ... dont let it get to you!
You have to remember what you have learned through your bad experiences... for instance... I have gone through the rude remarks and just overal bad treatment and it has made me SUCH a BETTER Person. In all honesty I wouldn't trade it for the world.
I am actually GLAD that I went through all those bad experiences, because it has made me a more compasionate, considerate, humble, understanding and just generally a nicer person. Qualities I wouldn't trade for the world!!! I look at someone who is suffering and I dont snicker or make comments or act rude... I sympathize, understand, relate and want to be nicer to them. These people that make these comments and treat others rudely...what do you think they have learned??? Nothing! Dont sink to their level...why go backwards when you can go forwards and hold your head up high. You have to go through the bad to understand and APPRECIATE the good. I am sure their appreciation is limited.
OK off my soapbox! You hang in there girl and dont let them get to you. You are better than that! 
((hugs))
