Yeah I have heard it all. First people would make commets like is the big girl here or you know the heavy one rang me up ( store Manager) Or is that big lady here today? Some days I would get up set and say you know I do have a name!!! Well those same people then after I had WLS would say oh my are you sick...I heard you were ill is it cancer? Then I head I was on drugs from other people. It is just crazy. Now today I am hearing god you are to small you need to stop. What do you weigh now 140 I just say no I dont but thanks. Then there are some that say oh you must still be sick your going to be sorry if you dont put some weight back on. I mean yeah there are a few that really do care and seem so happy for me but it is the ones that just keep at it that get me worked up they can say some really stupid things. I dont hide the fact of what I did. Any one and everyone that asks me how did you lose all that weight? or the other not so nice ways they ask me I tell them nice and proud I had SURGERY!!!! I am doing great and I feel great then I tell them where and my doctors name. I figure hey maybe I can help someone else along the way, Maybe they have a friend or family member they will tell about me and pass on some help to them. I do get some people that after I say I had WLS get this look on there face like oh well no wonder she took the easy way out. Then they say stuff like you better be careful with that. I even had one lady get upset when I told her. She said her daughter had it done that she died on the table that she had heart problems they did not know about. I told her how sorry I was for her loss Then I asked did she go thru all the tests to get eveything checked out BEFORE WLS. SHe told me she did not have any tests ....I was like WHAT!!???? I told her about all the test I took that they checked my heart my lungs, sleep test, blood test I even took and HIV test and a pregancy test I was tested and tested and tested again BEFORE my doc would even touch me for the WLS. After I told her that she smiled and said she was happy for me. So there are just some out there that had a bad experience with WLS. I Felt so bad for her but at the same time was kinda mad that they did not demand the tests I would have gone to a new doc. ANy way I started to RAMBLE sorry. I will stop here
