kw2walker 211 Posted June 29, 2013 Hello everyone im new on here my surgery date is set for july 22 . Pretty nervous and excited at the same time. Anyone having problems with family support? My mom is not so happy bout me having surgery my sister also . The only real support i have is my husband would love to hear from anyone thanks for your time Hi, I have one sister that supports me along with a niece then I have one sister that think I should just go on a diet. Right! I haven told a lot of people one good friend knows and they live in Detroit. But we talk a lot. She has the lap band. So that common thread of having a procedure to loose weight helps. I have one week until I begin my pre-op liquid diet. July 22 is just around the corner! I suggest going to support groups in your area. I did and plan to continue. We will have to encourage each other, glad your husband is supporting you. It's an exciting time! Karen 1 nmck reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kw2walker 211 Posted June 29, 2013 Corina my family is not happy either but i tell them that i need it and if they want to have me around for many years i have to do this I'm with you on that. I want to be around for a bit longer. I have two grand-nephews, and want to rip and run with them. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vixynne 695 Posted June 29, 2013 So far, I've told both my moms about my surgery. I was adopted as a baby, and from the age of 21 on, I've been blessed to have my biological mom's loving presence in my life, in addition to the rock-solid love of my adoptive mom. I was worried that they wouldn't agree with my decision, especially my bio-mom--she's a Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, probiotic, unprocessed sugars, whole-wheat flour, herbal supplement, alternative medicine-cured-her-Stage-IV-cancer kind of lady. I kind of thought the idea of removing 2/3 of my stomach wouldn't go over well with her. Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit--they BOTH support my choice 100%! I'm so happy and surprised! This just proves that the women in my life are beyond amazing. :wub: 5 qnz234, nmck, JessicaAnn and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
