Reading your post and the responces has been a big help to me... as its clear now... you and I are not alone in our Boat! I didnt tell people either. I told my boyfriend and my children and ONE very close friend at work. I knew non of these people would judge me and they would all be quiet about it. My biggest struggle now is the feeling of lying to my family. My sister keeps asking me to go to dinner wth her... im three weeks Post op and I feel so bad not telling her. UGHHHHH But this has been the hardest choice I have ever made and I dont want anyone judging me. I dont want anyone saying I took the easy way out because as we all know... this is far from easy! I wish I could tell some others and maybe have more support (no one who knows understands how this feels) I am getting some great support here though and Im so glad for that. I hope things get easier for you and this feeling of lying passes.

Thank you so much for your responce! Ill keep plugging along as best I can!

Congrats!! you post actually brought tears to my eyes! I dont even know you - but im so happy for you!!!
