I didn't tell anyone except for the people who would be directly, you know, impacted; my husband and mother and one friend, but I didn't tell anybody else because I didn't want to have that conversation about complications, that it's an easy way out you know your whole life can change...I understood those things..you know I don't think anybody wanted to have a conversation about all of the complications with obesity which are far greater. So it really just wasn't a conversation i wanted to have everyday. Now that I've had the surgery obviously I can't get away with saying I had a bad case of dysentery but I think that, you know, I don't have to have that conversation and I can just discuss why and maybe encourage other people to lose weight. The people in my life are eating healthier now because of what I've gone through.
