I had the surgery on February 20th, told my husband and a close, I don't see the need to tell anyone. I just go to the gym and working out, loosing weight. I don't feel the need to tell anyone, people talk too much. I'm a nurse and I was over weight, people expect you to be in shape or eat healthy. But it's not true a lot of nurses are overweight. As long you are comfortable with yourself, I don't see the need to tell anyone.
