what I ahve noticed
At the dinner I was getting a salad ( which was 1 piece of lettuce i slice of cuke and a sprinkle of cheese) one of my friend said " I wish that was all I can eat." I laughed and said "If I eat more than this all I will get to do is smell my steak!" We both laughed. But this friend don't want to learn more about the wls. She has struggled like me... done WW and curves and nothing is working. She is not ready to do this and that is ok too and I know better than to talk to much about it.
I don't mind Food Police either they are all just basicly curious about the wls but afraid to ask.

As we speak, I am hiding in my office trying to have a peaceful lunch of pinto beans and a piece of a chicken breast. I have gotten a little tired of people criticizing me at lunch. There is one lady in particular. She is like "are you suposed to be eating that?", "you are gonna put that weight right back on". It kinda ****** me off. I will be eating something that I know is good for me like beans. Sometimes I will mash them like refried beans. This lady acts like this is such a terrible thing for me to be eating. But, while she is monitoring me, she has a large plate of food from a restaraunt and a huge piece of cake and drinking sweet tea. Hello......look at your own plate. I too notice more what others eat. I can't beleive the way I used to eat. I also have a friend who is smo. We go to the gym together. I feel bad for her. She is not ready to try for the surgery, b/c when we talk about it, she always makes excuses like, she won't be able to lift her baby. I told her that we will keep working out together and I can help her plan lower fat, calorie, and carb meals. My mom too is almost to the point she can't walk and has so many problems, weight related. I feel like I can't enjoy my weight loss as much around them, b/c I feel like I am bragging or showing off in front of them. But, I agree....we should be there to answer questions, because there are a lot of stories floating around that are not good about wls. I for one have no complaints!!!!!!!!!
