Just started my journey 4 wks ago. Had my upper GI today blah! And consultation with my surgeon and found out I'm down 10 lbs already! Yeah. So now I have to get a sleep study to rule out apnea and lose another 15 and is looking like April will be my month for surgery if all goes accordingly , hopefully no probably with my insurance, Harvard pilgrim and I am having my procedure at lahey Burlington mass.

Peoples reactions to weight loss surgery
michelle4873 replied to michelle4873's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too always hated saying I was on a diet, I always felt people then watched everything I put in my mouth causing more pressure, so I can relate -
I don't have a date yet, I just scheduled my sleep artist this Monday but the surgeon is saying April just in time for my birthday! Lol

I do try to keep it to myself, but workmates( I work in hospital) know and can be judgemental , but my core group, my home life totally support which is soooooo important luckily! I just never want to hear " you have such a pretty face, if you could only lose some weight !" Again! Gotta love it lol
