I told about everyone! I was just so excited I couldn't hold it in... I needed to let work know because of all of the doctor's appointments I had to go to, but I wanted my friends to know for their support. Some of my friends were skeptical... Either they are really skinny and don't get it, or one, who is overweight is just not supportive at all. I think he is jealous, to be honest, but it's ok... I'd probably feel the same way. guess it works both ways. We don't want people to necesarily judge us for having the surgery, but we shouldn't judge others either for feeling how they feel. (unless it's a totally stupid reason)
