Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
What is the best compliment you've received so far?
I can think of 3:
1. My hubby to my son "Your mom bounces and smiles all the time now!"
2. The director (her name is Anne) where I volunteer said to me "You just look so much more comfortable in your own body!"
3. And my favorite was the other night when my hubby had to pick me up at the college.... he said "I was not sure how I was going to find you till I saw your umbrella... cuz now you just blend in with everyone else."
The very best part about #3 is that he was not trying to compliment me... he was just making a statement about trying to find me. He thought I was weird cuz I was all excited to "blend in with everyone else"... :) :)
So.... what's been yours? :)

I had a new neighbor ask me what my exercise routine is since I'm so "skinny".
A guy I worked with for 8 years, but hadn't seen in about a year didn't recognize me. He said he wondered who the "hot woman" was that knew him, but he didn't know and was concerned about what he may have done while drunk. :/
1) you were always a diva but now OMG watch out world
2) Honey (from hubby) your back to the woman I married 30 years ago
3) Girl where is your cab, look at you all fabulous walking off campus

I am almost in a size 16 and I gotta tell you - I do feel wonderfully blessed to have had this opportunity, God bless
2. Someone referred to me as "the body builder" at the gym!!
