Mad
I am watching True life: I'm uncomfortable with my body, and I have to say I have never been so pissed off by a t.v. show but I am right now.
This particular episode is following 2 young people who had bariatric surgery.
A young mother who had Gastric bypass
and a 21 year old boy who had the lap band 3 years ago.
The woman is having a hard time excepting her body because of the small amount of loose skin, I get it. She keeps saying she thought once she had surgery all her problems would be solved. This woman should not have had surgery with that frame of mind. So to feel better about herself she goes out to night clubs every night by herself, leaving her husband and 2 kids at home. She is at the club and is trampled by some guy because he thinks she pushed him, but she didn't. Drama.
But that's not why I'm pissed .
This 21 year old boy has lost a ton of weight, I don't know how much exactly but its alot, i can tell by the large amount of excess skin.
This boy goes to his Lap-band doctor and asks him to take all of the liquid out. The doctor is strongly against it but does it anyway. 2 hours later you see the boy at a diner eating some kind of salad and wrap, he cant keep it down and throws it up. He goes back to the table and does the dumbest thing possible. He proceeds to order slider deserts, things he knows he can keep down.
He orders
4 extra thick Vanilla milkshakes
Banana cream pie
Lemon pie
Brownie .
WTF does he think he's doing. He worked so hard to lose well over 200lbs.
I could not believe he did that even after he was advised not to.
So dumb.
Ugh. Sorry but I had to vent.

Corina,
I have seen that episode where you say she is partying and all that. I don't understand that. As far as the guy ordering all this crap and eating it and really not caring. Being almost 6 yrs out. I know I make dumb choices every single day. I admit that. I think that you will find that the further you get out it will be a hell of a lot harder than you will ever imagine. I neve thought I would be able to eat all that I can eat. I CAN. It really stinks to think we can make those types of choices after going thru all that hell. But , I know for a fact that you can be able to go back to eating exactly what you ate before all the blood, sweat, tears and weight loss surgery. Because I live it everyday. If it was just the only thing we had to do was get the wls... We would all look like Ken and Barbie. Getting the WLS was the easy part for me.

Smile, it increases your face value.
