Topic: RE: Who's your biggest cheerleader/critic?
My biggest cheerleaders are my mom and my daughter. They are very supportive...my mom is even going on the 2-week liquid only pre-op.
My sister is my biggest critic...I think it is more because her insurance won't cover her doing it, so she is jealous....but it still hurts when she is so negative.

She's probably just scared of the journey and this is how she is handling it. She'll come around when she sees how well you are doing. Keep the faith! :)

I'm sure your daughter will come around. Maybe she just scared for you. Once she sees you not only loosing weight but maintaining your health, maybe she'll come around.
I think the gym thing is interesting. My trainer (that I switched to) is trying to be supportive and then another one approached me telling me how excited she was for me because she heard it through the grapevine. I think they think that because I had surg. I won't exercise anymore, as you said, the easy way out. And, after the incident my first instinct was never to go back there again, but that does no one any good!

My biggest cheerleader is my husband and my co-workers. The fuss over me and tell me how good I look all the time, almost to the point of embarassment.
My critic, I'm sorry to say, is my daughter at this point. She was against the surgery and although she did visit me in the hospital and every day when I got home, she's been very uncommunicative about the subject since. Several of her friends have told me that she brags about how well I am doing, yet she's never said one thing to me.
I agree about the trainers at the gym, my gym owners tried to talk me out of the surgery, using the age old phrase "its the easy way out." Dont' even get me started....
Good question, though !

Thanks Chrissy!
I wouldn't be surprised if either of those were the cause. I sometimes feel like I never get enough liquids in me and now that the weather is turning warm again, I always feel overheated. Thanks for your input! I appreciate it.

I'm lucky with the cheerleaders. Just about everyone is really supportive: family, friends, coworkers, clients. All are really excited and watching me!
My biggest critics have been 2 trainers at my gym (one is my former trainer). When I told her what I was doing, she yelled at me and told me that was stupid...I was really taken aback and avoided her since. I'll prove her wrong! Plus, she annoys me anyway, that's why I stopped working with her a few years ago to start working with someone else. Bygones!

My son is my biggest chearleader. He's watches everything I do and reminds me when I forget things. He also reminds me why I did this so I don't cheat and eat something unhealthy. I really want sweet tea but oh, well! My GP has been seeing me every week to check my wound and she raves about how much it looks like I've lost.
So far, no critics that I've noticed but since I'm oblivious to what most people think... I did this for my health and really don't care what anyone else thinks.
