Parents Acceptance - thumbs down

There will be a day when parents aren't always accepting and supportive.

I finally told my parents about the VSG and the possibilities last week. They reacted in different ways.

One reaction - Research and make sure you know what you're getting into. Well duh!

Another reaction was that my mom sent an email on how to cheaply lose weight the "old fashion" way

Another was unexpected - an email from my aunt telling me about all these people who she knows has died or major complications.

The upside is that I've been able to see that my boyfriend is there for me and will be with me along the way, as he's always said he would.
