I Think These Rascals Know!!

Benedryl w/ Advil, lol!!!

And why are you on Advil?  Tylenol, woman!!! At least that what they told me w/ my boob reducer... benedryl to help sleep.  No TT, but I was off pills in 3 days.

Tylenol does nothing for me and I take Bene like Skittles.... I am HARDCORE baby!!!!

I guess it's a matter of personal preference.  When people ask me about my weight loss, the first thing I say is I'm not sick. I ha surgery so that I could be healthier. I don't mind telling I just don't like the dipsticks who want to broadcast it for me. Most people immediately think the worse, like you have some catastrophic disease. 

I'm very private about my business at the job as well. 

I think you just gotta get creative with your response.  Try my suggestion on for size. Now, Its gonna require a bit of acting on your part........but just looking at you I have no doubt that you can pull this one off......

Come in close......


Tell them that everytime you go to Walmart,  you get  mobbed by millions of ladies who mistake you for  Morris Chestnut and that you been literally running for your life which is causing all the weightloss.

I would even follow it up with some flyers in the lounge for a part time body guard you know to escort you to your car  after work and little errands on the weekends. 

Now, two possible outcomes could come outta this.....the folks will believe you - and never ask you again..............or they will think you have lost your cotton picking mind.

Either way you should be good to go........


Way to work your tool too,  you look great 

Some peeps @ work know from me, some may have overheard, etc.  After, I could give a rat's azz!  But I don't want the why crap.  I have a coworker that's overweight - she's a good 5'7" and about 270-290.  Overheard and had the NERVE to ask me why I was doing it, and why I didn't try other methods.  B*tch!  You've known me all of a year or 2 - how do you know what I did?  I started explaining and stopped.  I asked her  - are they cutting into you?  No?  Then why the f**k does it matter to YOU?

That's the ish I really don't wanna hear.  Now if someone else asks why, I'm just gonna say cuz Y comes before Z and keep it moving.

LOL @ Krazy ....Are they cutting into you ?  Then why the f**k dose it matter to you??  Priceless I wish I could of seen the look on ol' girls face when you said that.

her azz was like dayum!  I hate it when it's other fat arses that try to come @ you like that.  Now, she gonna say try something - she quit WW after 3weeks!  She's never stayed on one.  Then wanted to point out I gained weight after i quit WW.  That I DID explain to her..

Brandy  started @ 293 in  mid Sept 2007.  Just by switching from Cokes to Coke Zeros and severely cutting fast food, I went down to 282 in Jan 2008 when I started WW.  Math check - 11lbs lost.

By May, I lost 23lbs (just pure lost - not the add/gains, etc.).  34lbs total.  I gained 5lbs in Nov 2008 - 6mths later.  That was due to meds for illness.  By Feb of this year, total gained was 13lbs.  '

Stupid beetch, I STILL managed to keep off 21lbs, while you gained far more than that back!

What's that song by Pink?  Stupid Girls??? Sounds bout right... Crabs or pigs in a barrel.  This is one Ms. Piggy that's running for her freedom!  Stay fat and get sick - not I!!!

I'm been pretty upfront with my co-workers about the surgery.  You know what?  They really don't care if stuff is out in the open.  I have had people ask me why I did it and I always tell them that I didn't want to be a diabetic or have high blood pressure which runs in my family.  No one questions me after that except to find how how the process went, the cost, if insurance covers it or how I feel.  I've figured out that most people either want the surgery themselves or they know someone who needs it.  Share information with those you think can benefit from your experience and forget the rest of them.
