Hey there Bright,

I had to go away for my surgery (about a 4 hour drive) so I had my mom and best friend go with me and my husband stayed home with the kids. Mine are 6 and 9. I told them that it wasn't healthy for me to be so overweight and that the doctor was going to do a procedure on my tummy to help me eat less. I had the procedure done outpatient so I didn't stay in the hopsital. I had my surgery on a Friday and was home Sunday. They have seen my incisions scars and ask me how my tummy feels. It has been about 2 months and they hardly remember what happened. They just know that I am trying to eat and be healthier. Hope this is helpful.
