Guest guest Posted August 28, 2001 Report Share Posted August 28, 2001 Some people want to punish " fat " people for whatever their sick reason is. I was thinking about replies we could use. For instance, when accused of taking the easy way out by having wls ... we could ask if they took anesthesia during any dental work or surgery in the past. When they say " Yes " , we could say, " Oh, you took the easy way out! " Can someone think of others? n _______________________________________________________ Send a cool gift with your E-Card http://www.bluemountain.com/giftcenter/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2001 Report Share Posted August 28, 2001 n, Most people who make those 'easy way out' or 'you cheated!' comments are MO themselves and need to belittle others success in order to justify the dieting yo-yo they're feel is the only option for them. I can be a sarcastic *itch at time, but I would try to at least get them thinking if possible, even if I was slightly sarcastic in the process! *grins* If someone told me I took " the easy way out " , my response would probably be, " That's because the 'hard way' doesn't seem to be as successful does it ? " As for someone being stupid enough to say I " cheated " ? My response would be that " The only thing I cheated was Death, but I still have to pay my taxes " Anita Pre-op in Denver > Some people want to punish " fat " people for whatever their sick reason is. > I was thinking about replies we could use. > For instance, when accused of taking the easy way out by having wls ... > we could ask if they took anesthesia during any dental work or surgery in > the past.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2001 Report Share Posted September 3, 2001 Remember when we were talking about people saying this is taking the easy way out? Geesh! I know that ain't so now. I have to get geared for all the stuff I have learned on this and a month of hell and then maybe I will start feeling human again. At least that is what I have gotten as an impression here! But, I was thinking of asking back to anyone who says it was the easy way out - did you ever break a bone? did you have it set and wear a cast? You took the easy way out. You should have just let it heal on its own. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, , I remember well... Sorry that it still *IS* hell for you. My guess is that if you had an experienced DS surgeon who believed in the procedure, and not Deveney, your problems would not be as great as they are. But, yes, I recall every day looking for another report on you from Gobo and just shaking my head. I hope your angels help to heal you quickly. --Steve -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
