Good Laugh

Today I realized I am currently 77 pounds heavier than my friend Tammy, That is the size of a 8 year old child. I am lugging an 8 year old child around with me everyday. AHHHH!!! LOL Well, I had a concerned friend express her concerns about me having surgery She stated that I can diet & exercise. I explained to her that I had this 8 year child around my waist and it keeps nagging me to feed it. I told her to try to live that way and see how far she got. I think I made a good point with humor. She had nothing to say except well your my friend and I will support you. That was the right thing for her to say and I respect her for it.

That's a good friend. I'm fine with people expressing their concerns. But I'm so tired of hearing "horror" stories about someone's uncle so and so who had their stomach "stapled" 20 years ago and almost died 5 times and is sick everyday blah blah, and don't you know you'll just gain the weight back because so and so's uncle so and so did!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHH! Then the old diet and exercise thing of course always comes up. I just say, "If I could do that do you think I would ever big this big in the first place?" Most people just nod and shut up then, most people anyway. But what your friend said is definatly great. That's all I expect from people, their support. You don't have to agree with me but just be there for me.
