And like *that* my bubble burst...

I'm so sorry your feelings were hurt. Sometimes people just don't think before they speak.

I did that to someone when I was very early out. She did not get offended but pulled out a picture of what she had looked like two years before.

At the time, I just thought that everyone who had had weight loss surgery would be really skinny. I felt so terrible when I realized that many people did not get to their goal weight, but were still healthier after surgery.

It was a mistake that I hope to never make again.

did you happen to see a white cane with red tip?? My mom always says consider the source. They were focused on themselves two weeks out a lot is going on!! you are rocking this 14 lbs from goal that is great don't let it get to you. keep up the great work!!

Your post was so funny it brought tears to my eyes. You are so right that at two weeks out the anesthesia hasn't even worn off yet, so their brains are not fully functioning.

I have had this happen to me. I just gave them a little ***** face and said..no I'm a year out.

People don't knwo and sometimes they are nervous and say stupid things. You should of told her about your 107 pound weight loss with pride.
Way to go!!!!!!

you are an inspirtation to me who is just getting started on my weight loss journey.

Thanks and keep up the great work.\

Good job, you're doing so great. People are idiots. Once, at my work that I had been at for 5+ years, a coworker asked if I was new. I felt hurt but I sure like the look on her face when I corrected her. She was fairly new and just looking to connect but it wasn't going to be with me.

Please don't let that get to you! I was 1 year out, 120 lbs down, below goal (145lbs at 5'9) and the STAFF at the clinic said, while booking a follow-up, "So......you're post surgery, right?".

You are great :)

Sorry, but the website ate the bubble picture and just posted the text. I can give you applause instead.
