No! You are not a failure!!! You are making a choice to better your life! It's great!

Thank you so much! I don't have alot of support on this decision, so it's great to hear positive feedback!! What has been the biggest challenge for you so far? Anything I should preapare for that maybe they don't tell you before hand?

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Thank you so much. They keep saying it will have horrible damaging long term effects on my body, ect...and that I'll be sick every day, develop hernias..ugh..did u have the surgery? How has the experience been? I don't know anyone who has had it.

So, the moment has finally arrived. I can pretty much pick my surgery date, a moment I've been awaiting for a long time. However, my family is immensely against me having the surgery, and are filling my head with horrible negative thoughts. I don't believe them, but it still hurts me, and Im a mess right now. Im hoping to get some support from this forum Thank you all, good luck in your journey.
