Rant of the week and other stuff

  Hi friends, here I am at the library writing my weekly entry, hope you all are doing well and enjoying your weekend.Please give me your thoughts about what I am writing now, my brother went to visit my former neighbor Larry who is a retired policeman Monday to show him his new car, I had seen Larry last in April when his friend and my friend too Ted had come to visit, anyhow Larry was talking to my brother and he was like " Wow you know, your sister has put on alot of weight since I last saw her 4 years ago" Ouch, the zinger here is Larry's son Aaron used to be 400 pounds before he had bypass surgery a year ago so I would say Larry is a huge hypocrite and another thing too, just because Aaron had the surgery and it was a success for him does'nt mean everyone else would have the same results Aaron did, Yeah ok I know I am not skinny, I'm aware of that, but hey at least I am a nice person and a good friend and I care about other people.That remark totally pissed me off, I never said anything mean about Aaron's weight either in all the years I knew Larry, I know I do'nt eat the greatest and my soda addiction is probably to blame for my weight gain, so if anything I am the only one who is in control of what I eat, I need to start trying harder and laying off the soda and drinking water instead and limiting my fast food intake, my feelings were hurt by Larry ( I guess since he is retired now, he does'nt have much to do except run his mouth), but the more I think about it, he does'nt matter to me and all of you do, anyhow work is going ok, we are still without a manager, but one of the asst managers Amelia from the Mountain View store has been helping us, Amelia is so sweet and cool, I hope she can stay at our store , I enjoy working with her alot, I am hoping to have my laptop sometime in October so thank you all for sticking with me and I promise things will be just like old times very soon, Have a good upcoming week everyone, I Love You All Lisa XOXO

Even though Larry the pig doesn't matter, it still hurts.  He's just ignorant and doesnt' think before he speaks.  

Want to get off soda with me?

That's horrible for someone to mention your weight especially when his own son had a weight problem. Don't let it get to you ... that was just mean. Emmi

I hate when people mention other peoples weight. But then I guess I would, being over 300 lbs. I've been up & down all my adult life...so I know what a problem it is & how much hurt it causes.
He probably didn't mean anything mean, just that he lets his mouth run wild before his brain thinks! A lot of people are like that, then there are some who talk about people & say ugly things just for the heck of it.
Don't let it get to you, we know what a beautiful person you are...& I mean INSIDE & OUT! I've seen photos of you, you're a classy looking chick. :)
Hugs,
Sugar

Awww Lisa,
I am so sorry.
I wish I could give you a hug.
Larry ia a big mouth and way out of line.
I am sorry that your brother told you, he probably didn't realize how much that would hurt you.
I drink Coke every day...and I'm not going to give it up!
Thank you for the post card, it was so cute!
Just like you.
Love,
Donna

Larry should have worried about his son when he was 400 lbs.  I wish your brother hadn't even told you.  I've been trying to lose weight by cutting back.  It's hard to keep weight off.  Don't pay attention to ignorant comments because that's what that was.  Hugs Chris

I don't think I would want to loose the weight like his son did. Had a friend one time and she did something like that and lost some weight. She was the STRANGEST person. When she lost weight she got snotty!! ?? Well it did not take her too long to gain it all back. Ignore is smart mouth... who the heck is he anyway! Poo on him! Yes you are nice. :-) Bet you will really be glad to get the new laptop. Hugs, Janie

If his son had a weight problem one would think he would be a little more COMPASSIONATE about stuff like that!!!  JERK!!

And by the way....even if he was stupid enough to say it....why did your brother have to TELL you?????????????

I hope you get your new computer soon!  I know this library stuff is getting to you!

((hugs))

FUCK OFF, LARRY!!  Where do these people get off?  It's never a bad idea to get down to a healthy weight (which you probably are already), but it's always a bad idea to let assholes like him get into your brain.  And why didn't your bro stick up for you?  I'm pissed.

I love ya, Lisa!

What a sweetie that Russ is, eh? :)  Nothing like hearing something like that from a guy!  He is right on, too!
What I would like to know is, who told you that Larry said that?  Your brother?  Because if he did, why would he do that, knowing that it would hurt your feelings.  Granted, Larry shouldn't have said that, but whoever told you he said it, should have kept it to themselves.
Lisa, you are a sweet, sensitive, caring woman, and that's all that matters.  Like Russ said, it is good  to get down to a healthy weight, but then you already know that.  It's a hell of a lot easier to put the weight on than it is to lose it.
You are fine the way you are!  Love yourself, my friend!  We all love you, just the way you are!! :)

Hugs and love
Jackie

This is NOT all Larry's fault. Your brother lost his sensitivity chip..why the hell would your brother tell you that? Bullshit, totally. I would never repeat any comment about weight.
Tell Larry to go beat his meat.....he is a clueless ass. Tell your bro to shut his mouth too.
I miss you Lisa. Really. ALWAYS.
XO

Aww lisa.  Ignore those ugly comments.  I'm sure you look fine and you are you in your own skin.  Who cares what Larry thinks??  Not me!!  I hope you have a wonderful week ahead and we are all looking forward to you getting a computer and being back online regularly.  Love ya!! Shelly

I think Russ said it best!  Who cares what he thinks.  What bothers me is that your brother said that to you.  He should have kept his mouth shut!
Hugs,

That guy needs to go fuck himself!  Don't let what others say define you honey.  You are a wonderful person, inside and out!  He's just an ignorant SOB!
