Not Sure If you Want Your Friend & Family to Know??
Sigh* im sure you have heard the all too familiar "No, no, no please don't have the surgery you aren't that big! you can do it on your own!" Followed by some sort of advice about alternative weightloss...that you have probably tried three years ago. LoL when talking to nay sayers it triggers your dormant insecurities....or maybe you have obvious insecurity who knows? Either way keeping it to yourself isn't such a bad idea at times. Sharing your plans of surgery with some people does come with some stigma, but the flipside is that it can empower you also. You're probably like "wtf is she talking about??" What I mean is while you are debating with the nay sayer you can actually transform that person into a temporary physical manifestion your insecurity and your fears. Tell your fears why you need to have this surgery. Stare the worry in it's eyes and don't back down. Im not telling you to do this daily because it can be tedious...but use that annoying neighbor or coworker as a tool to strengthen yourself. Don't let anyone dictate your life. I'm sure when your bed bound at 500lbs the nay sayers will have some more advice for you too. It's your life, no one else has to live it but you.
