Oh Joe, I cannot tell you how moving your post was. You were able to put into words, how so many of your fellow sleevers are feeling. I know it must have been difficult to put onto paper, but now you are free. Anyone who knows or loves you will hopefully be able to look at your decision through your eyes, rather than through theirs. When I decided to have my surgery, I also told only a handful of people. I could not believe how many comments came back to me regarding my not needing the surgery as well as why don't you just try Weight Watchers. I did have positive support, but was amazed at the negative comments. Joe, success is the sweetest revenge. You, your wife and children are the ones who will be better off with your health improving. I am off of most of the meds that I was taking prior to surgery, I am down 42 lb. (sleeved 1/19) and now all I am hearing is how wonderful I look. Joe I can only tell you how wonderful I feel. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and posting. Be Well!
