I have more than 200 to lose as well. No one realizes it, even my husband, because I hide behind a tough shield. No one besides my Dr knows what I weigh. I meet with the surgeon next week, April 21st, to schedule my surgery. I'm hoping for an early May surgery so that I can acclimate somewhat before my kids get out of school for the summer. I know how you feel though, there is fat shaming even amongst the overweight population. I've heard a woman say before "at least I'm not THAT fat". I totally understand. Feel free to vent to me any time.
