Default Did She REALLY Say That???

Recently I had an appointment with my GBS surgeon for a consult for gallbladder surgery (finally). The nurse called me back in to an additional waiting room where you get weighed and you wait to get put into a room to see the doctor. In this room they also play the pre-op video explaining the procedure to patients & their family. There was about 5 other pre-op ladies in there and of course they were checking me out up & down. This one snobby broad looks at me and snarls "and EXACTLY what are YOU here for? You aren't fat???"

Excuse me??? Here I am turning around to see who she is bitching at & I realize that it is me! Huh??? Me??? After I regained my composure I firmly stated "Honey...I have been where you are. I am more than 2 years out & I can definately understand your mood swings".

I have never in a million years have thought that I would have been on the receiving end of "skinny envy". How cool is that???

After 25 months...I just may have finally arrived at the mind set that I am not the fat girl anymore. Yee-HAAWWWW!!!
