I told everybody that cared for me. Some of them tried to talk me out of the surgery, but I told them this is my body and they don't live in it. I asked them to just support me and my decision to get healthier. Rather I cheated or not I'm happy with my decision, and now I'm taking it one day at a time!

Yes, I've have experience all of that, It helps when I walk as much as possible. I would love to sleep on my left side which still pretty sore and uncomfortable.
