When you were first considering weight loss surgery and after you decide to have it did you keep it to yourself or tell everyone.

I have only told a few friends, my mom and my husband of course. I haven't told any of my other family member yet. Too much negativity and I don't need that right now.

I waited until after the surgery to tell most people. I didn't need to hear their opinion.

I grew up being the target of bullies. So I am very guarded about giving my enemies ammunition. I didn't tell anyone but my best friend and my parents. Remember, you can tell people about the surgery anytime you want, but you can't untell them.

Here's my video explaining my stance on to tell or not tell.

I told everyone, but it's a personal choice, completely up to you. There is no right or wrong answer.

I told no one but my husband and daughters. Even now, a year and a half later, I have only told three other people. When people ask how I have lost weight, I tell them diet and exercise. And that is the truth.
