I totally agree with everyone.  My co-worker is pretty much OCD about her weight / size - she took 2 years to lose 50 lbs with WW and is now about 120 lbs and a size 4, works out 2 hrs per day and eats next to nothing - yet she keeps telling me (every single day) that I'm getting too skinny - hello? - I'm 204 lbs and a size 16/18.  I have not shared the fact that I had WLS.  So far I've just smiled and told her that I have a LONG way to go to catch up to her - but one of these days she's going to catch me on a crappy-mood day.....

Don't let them burst your bubble. When we are big it makes people comfortable and feel superior. Now that you are looking and feeling great they are threatened.

Don't let them take that spark away, it's hard earned. Way to go!!

Thanks everyone, sometimes I wonder if I am a crazy person and this board helps alot by telling me I'm NOT alone.  I love it! 

Want to hear the sweetest thing EVER?  My Dad told me quietly in my ear "Chris don't you listen to them, I'm your biggest cheerleader and will be the one taking you on your skinny girl shopping spree...to hell with them all".  I love my Dad!

To all of you who have posted...I give you all props!! I won't have surgery until 3/30/10, but some of the people that I work with talk crap about a lady who had the surgery all the time. She too skinny, her hair looks like crap and so on. I always say if she's happy leave her alone. I don't know how big she was before, but I think she looks great. I'm keeping my surgery to myself for now. But I can't wait until I start losing weight! The funny thing about my surgery is it's my son's 18th birthday. Funny how 18 years ago I started taking care of him, and 18 years later I'm going to start aking care of myself!!
Happy New Year to all of you!!
