Are You Going To Tell Anyone About Your Surgery???

Another thing!

I don't want to tell anyone until I'm actually approved.

To me... that's like telling someone you're pregnant when your period's 2 days late!

If I don't get approved for some reason, I don't want to have to go back and tell everyone and get those sad-puppy-dog-eye looks... ugh!

Another thing that sucks about having told people is that now they are constantly asking me how much weight I've lost. I've only lost ten pounds. I still have 40 to go. it's a process.

Iv told everyone of importance and they are all very supportive with my decision!

I really don't know what I am going to do about telling others. I am in the beginning stages and have my evaluation appointment. I have mentioned to a few people, family members and a couple close friends and they were more supportive of the idea then I thought they would. My husband doesn't want me to but I think he will support me when I make the final decision. I have a hard time keeping things to myself so doubt if I will be able to keep it a secret at work but I would like to keep it private.

I decided to tell only those I cared about and trusted. Having their support is crucial to me and so far everyone has been supportive and this has been really valuable in going through my journey. I do think it is a personal decision but it is good to have that openness and support around you.

Best of luck!
