"You don't have any kids, so you have the time."
"Don't lose too much weight. You don't want to look frail."
"I just go by how my clothes fit. I never weigh myself." This is from someone who is about 25 lbs overweight.
I hope this adventure puts a little peer pressure on everyone in my family -- husband included! My last class (6 month) is next Thursday and I CAN'T WAIT TO BE SUBMITTED and APPROVED!

"Most people aren't like you. Most of the people I know who have had WLS feel sick all of the time"
"I'm just going to eat like I've HAD surgery." -- This one really cracks me up since I remember saying that before when my cousin had lapband!
