my husband was caught with another woman
Ok my husband is the one that usually stops at the family dollar store to pick up some items...paper plates,garbage bags, cleaning supplies.
Well last night we went together and there was one of the workers that was outside smoking......she kept staring at us...then all of a sudden she says
OMG I THOUGHT YOUR HUSBAND WAS WITH ANOTHER WOMAN,AND then she asked me how i had lost my weight i told her not that i am ashamed of my surgery.....but i get sick of telling everyone...i said i am on a high protein no sugar diet.....
woo hoo woo hooo
LOL...I love it!!
I have reached the point of not telling people any more. I was very open but now its people I don't know that well...Like the greeter at Wal Mart who are commenting on the loss, and people like that I don't think its their business. So I too say things like High protein, no sugar or fat, no drinking with meals etc...
It's all true, I just leave out the part about the surgery.
Last week at the Pool someone didn't recognise me, I kept waving at her ( I was in the water and she was in the gym) She just stared at me blankly. Then she realized...
She came out saying "OMG, i was thinking ...that woman looks a little like Becky"

I have a male co-worker who commented on my weight loss for the second time in about a month ('looks like your diet is still working"). Then he asked if I had one of those wasting away diseases. We laughed and I assured him I didn't, but I have no idea what he was talking about???
Even before I had surgery, I told only my sister about the surgery and my closest co-worker I told I was going to the dr and a nutritionist for weight management (it helps that my WLS dr has a non-surgical practice for weight loss, too) and was going to be on a liquid protein diet for a while. Others, I just admitted to dieting (high protein low fat low carb) and commitment to exercise when the weight loss was noticed. I also said I had been dieting since March (it's true) but that it just took some better fitting clothes to show off the results.
Although I'd love to have had someone close to share the journey with, I just did not want the attention and criticism from the unknowing. BUT, ALL THAT'S IS CHANGING NOW!!!!!! My dear sister is going for lap band surgery hopefully before Christmas. She's just waiting for insurance to give the surgeon information on what her co-pay will be (probably as little as $500). Because she was still struggling with weight loss, I had been avoiding sharing my joys with her so she wouldn't be jealous or get discouraged. Now I can whoop it up with her aboutboth of our successes!!! I'm soooo excited for her - and for me!!!
Sorry for the looooong story and hijacking Crystal's post!
Cleo ya think that the male co-worker might have a little interest in you???? (SMILE)
HE'S asked about you 2x's....hmmmmm....(smile)
I totally hear you about NOT telling people I wish that I would have kept it a little more secretive...........i get sick of the critical concerns,the watching, the comments on how pale i am .....etc...
i am so excited for you and YOUR sis getting this done....so you will truly have someone to share your success with.....and your sisiter too.....
((love ya girl, and i was just messing with you about the male coworker))))))
