Having a Rough Day....

Hey everyone -  I guess I am having an over emotional day today.  This afternoon at work I was telling my co-worker how I took my son with his speech group to the pumpkin farm and what a wonderful time we had.  And I started to say that the bees really bad when we were eating our apple donuts ... and she cut me off ... she was like you shouldn't be eating those...and do you know how bad those are for you... and right away I got defensive and was like well I have one weekend left to enjoy a few of things that I love...and starting Tuesday I am on my liquid diet and road to changing my life forever... But she wanted to keep going with me... so I lost it... I let my emotional self take over and I was tearing up.  I was like please stop ... don't you know that I know that the donut is bad.  So now over and over it keeps replaying ... I don't know what I am trying to say... I guess I am just venting...  And by the way she didn't even let me even finish... I didn't even eat the donut... everyone else did, but I didn't!  I said no thank you.   Gina :)

((((Gina)))) Don't let people upset you like that, I am sure if they were in the same boat they would have ate that donut, I know I would, and I know they are bad for us, but hey you will not be able to eat them after your surgery. And I bet she is skinny and never had a weight prob. so what does she know anyway.  So you start your liquids Tues.Well if you needs someone to talk to remember we are here for you, you can also give me a call,

((hugs)). People make me feel bad for things I do also. Live your life for YOU. I feel th same way I told my husband we have to eat all our junk and fast food in the next 2 weeks because then its all over with. Enjoy it now and just know we have to stop post-op.

Don't let others get you down.

Hey Gina.......Think of that little outburst as your last!   Next time you eat a doughnut, you will be a skinny mini and she will be a fatty!   You are in the process of winning your battle, so just because it's not showing on the outside yet......doesn't mean it's not there. I would have stuffed that doughnut in the girls face!   but that's me!

Gina, It is so sad, but people like that think they are helping. Next time, do not even defend yourself. Walk away and don't waste any of your precious energy defending yourself against someone that doesn't really care.

Gina,don't let people like that get you down, They don't know you. Good luckon your diet, I start mine on Monday. Lisa

Hi Gina: Please try not to feel too bad.  This is going to be a really emotional time for you and you did nothing wrong.

Some people think they are being helpful, even when they need to be slapped upside their head. If you are this far into your journey, you KNOW what is good for you and you KNOW how things will be changing very soon.  Some people are just dumb. The liquid diet is really the start of your new life, and you will be on your way before you know it. By the way, I would have eaten maybe half of that donut.......because you MAY never have one again, depending on how your body reacts after your surgery.......you did very well by declining.
