I work with several people that have had it -- and I have stuck to keeping my business private. I tell everybody that I cut out fast food and junk food' date=' cut out carbs, drink lots of Water, and exercise my ass off. All of this is true. I love that I kept it to myself. Because I don't want my food to be inspected every day at lunch and I don't need everybody discussing my decision- as I have heard so many judge the folks I work with that are open about their business.

I love that it is my secret. I still have done all the hard work.[/quote']

Melissa, this is exactly how I deal with it

I say the same thing. Only a handful of people at work know and they all are respectful of my privacy. More and more people are commenting in my size and progress. I feel a little guilty when they ask if I had surgery and i say no, but it is none of their business. Bottom line is I've changed my habits and that is what's causing my weightloss.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
