Here is crazy thoughts I've been having.........

What can I say or should I say type…….

On Friday (March 14) I was present at a round table discussion on Gastric Bypass and the aspect of long term change. As the discussion progressed a negative undertone began to emerge. Some, who had not had the surgery (yet, needed, or wanted), questioned the choices made by individuals who felt the need to take such a radical option. Nothing that was said satisfied the questioners. I view my choices as personal and needing no explanation to anyone other than the ones I chose so, I did not share. I believe I would have been more candid if the environment had been less hostile (bad word but I’m not sure what to use) but I did lose my cool (shocking). The mediator, a nun or something (chaplain?)With the Catholic Church, who is very skinny and had already expressed her ability to not understand the surgery rattled off her opinion on how individuals choosing GBS have less will power and are ultimately very selfish. I had had enough and went off. I did raise my voice especially when she stated “Now Keith, we all struggle with our weight”. After it was all over I was left with mixed emotions. 1. I had lost my cool. 2. I became emotional about something that is unexplainable. 3. I wanted to eat (preferably a couple dozen Krispy Kremes). I know that no matter what choices we make there will all ways be someone to question those. So, I letting it go hopefully and allowing myself to only be concerned with me (now that’s being selfish…oh well).

My partner is a good man and is very helpful keeping me from freaking out more on this subject matter. He laughs at my sensitivity on this subject. I am no longer allowed to kick the dog!

Wonder why people can’t just let others live their lives instead of trying to force their views on them?

Have a good St. Patty’s Day…..no beer here (oh, well). Keeping on truck’n.

Peace

Keith

P.S. I will post a much happier rant later in the week.

Thanks Bob.....I know I know but sometimes I just hate all that negative crap....I do my best to put all that out of my mind. Don't get me wrong I love to wrestle in the mud from time to time. I was just expecting something more since this was put on in conjuction with Tn goverment in Nashville.  Keith.... P.S. I wish you could bottle that hot donut smell mmmmmmmmm that sweet yeasty smell...."Is That a New Cologne your wearing" ......"Why yes....its Eau de Krispy Kreme"
