Topic: RE: wrinkled old prune
Now I am going to play Devils advocate (so don't shoot me). Perhaps this person thought you were a beautiful person before weight loss (which you were and still are), and didn't know how change her vision on you or express herself properly. Rapid weightloss is a sign of sickness, as well as being a healthy thing. Not that she is right at all but I want to equate it to a drastic change I made lately. I went from brunette to very blonde in one fell swoop. It was a shocking change. My mother bless her heart was so used to seeing my with darker hair, she could not wrap her head around the change and didn't see the whole me just my hair. Let us just say she didn't express herself very well at first, though she has come around and now loves the hair. Unless you know this person to be nasty, then maybe she was just in shock and couldn't see past weightloss to see how beautiful and healthy you are getting. Then again if she is just nasty ignore the b*tch.
The devil's advocate

Hi Livinglifeagain!!! Welcome to the forum!!
~Thanks Angie~!!
I am the facilitator for the Sackville support group. I am waiting to hear back for our booking date in March. I will post the details asap. You are welcome to visit and we would love to have you join us.
Our Sackville group is usually a mix of pre & post ops with a variety of procedures including VBG, VSG, Lapband, RNY Gastric Bypass, Revision & DS-duodenal switch (some members have even self-paid out of province & country).
Nova Scotia used to do the Gastric Bypass surgery in the mid 90's after they stopped the VBG (stapling). Dr. MacDonald was one of those surgeons.
As we've found with all WLS procedures, they CAN all have great success with proper education. The KEY is ongoing SUPPORT to keep us focused--it's a life long journey!!
WELCOME ABOARD!!!

I think you look beautiful.
I really believe that people that ooze that much negativity are really unhappy in their own lives, and can't cope with seeing other people succeed and become happier, healhier people.
I have a few friends who make comments.. horrifying comments about what it'll be like when I finally have WLS. They don't realize what fucktards they actually sound like.
Just shrug it off, and realize that anyone who deems it appropriate to spew negativity and insults at another person is doing it from a horribly aweful place. Aren't you glad you're not there?
Pity them.. feel sorry for them -- and enjoy your new lease on life!

Pay no attention to all their JEALOUSY!!!!!!
Some people have to put others down to make themselves feel better, when they know they're not happy about their own lives!!!

They can't shut it cause they're IDIOTS!! I mean, really, if someone WAS sick would you say THAT to them? NOT! I would say she is the one who is sick - she has foot in mouth disease - very hard to cure!! She was just being a *****! Ignore her and lose all you want - this is the conclusion that I have come to anyway... BTW, you look MAHVELOUS DAHLING!!!

The support group meetings are at the Sobeys Community Room in Lower Sackville - the last one was held on Feb. 28 but there wasn't a great turn out due to weather conditions so I think there will be another one in mid March - it will be posted here on the NS Forum as well as on the FB page (which has limited public content so your FB friends can't see what you post to the page or even that you belong to it... Hope this helps :))
Here are the listings for the past few meetings...
