What to tell people why I am out?
shellnsons posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello, what reason did you guys tell your coworkers or certain family members why you would be out of work? I do not want to tell them I am having the Gastric sleeve... Note: I have some family and co-workers who would research if I tell them I am was having a certain type of surgery they would want to know what kind...I just do not want certain people in my buisness. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks -

Should I sleeve or Not to Sleeve
shellnsons replied to shellnsons's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thanks guys I appreciated your feedback...decided to go with the sleeve after doing my own due diligence I am going to be a self pay as well...I just really want to get rid of my diabetes. I am on insulin three times a day. I have been working out real hard so my numbers can be low and I also eat low carb meals. I went to the doctor and asked why I am not loosing any weight and he told me that insulin puts on weight..SAY WHAT -

To be thin you are so right Lady!! I will deal with my HR department ONLY in submitting my paperwork and will not go into detail with them either...I will get my doc to write up the paperwork...I work with some petty, catty women and I just do not want the negativity....my family is so judgmental...as well....I know my rights!! I do not have to go into details...Thanks ladies you have helped me a lot -

Kelly & Soon Great answers if they ask detail which I hope they don't I will tell them I had hernia repair....Thanks guys...My supervisor is very nosey and wants to be the caretaker of everyone in the dept but she also runs her mouth so I do not feel comfortable telling her at anything..just that I am having surgery..I know it is against the law to ask but she can be persistant..Ugh! LOL -
THanks Kelly I just read your story and it has put me at ease with my choice of going with Dr. Kelly. YOu really gave details it was a great read.

Hello guys I am hearing that you do not loose as much weight with the sleeve as you do with the Duodenal Switch. Is this true? what made you choose the sleeve out of the other surgeries...Honest Thoughts? thanks
