    Secret Surgery

    I too have kept my upcoming RNY a secret. My husband knows, of course, he is also having the surgery in March, we have shared it with my stepdaughter as she worries about her fathers recent diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes and we wanted to ease her mind that the WLS should help eliminate that. Other then that I have only shared with one friend at work and she is supportive and excited to see my progress. I will probably tell my family once it's done. I'm waiting until then for 2 main reasons, 1st I do not want anyone worrying and 2nd I need to keep my thoughts clear of any other opinions except my own. This is a huge decision and I am making it for me alone. Everyone has an opinion but right now I do not need any added confusion. I've done my research and feel good about my new future. My main concern with not telling the people closes to me (my mom, son and daughter, sister) is that they will be hurt and upset with me for not sharing prior. I guess that spells out my issue with pleasing others before myself pretty clearly :-0 this time it's about me and I cannot be swayed or confused by the opinions of others no matter how much I love them, they will be happy when I'm healthy and around much longer :-)

    Surgery date 02.10.2014

    Feb. 17th is my big day! I start the pre-op diet on Monday the 3rd so I'm enjoying and saying goodbye to a few of my favorites with a so called last supper on Super Bowl Sunday. I'm ready to say goodbye to the garbage and hello to portion control and feeling lighter :-)

    Kristina, I'm a Portland girl myself, scheduled for RNY Feb. 17th, my hubby is soon to follow in March but not so big on the support thing. Unfortunately that leaves me kinda like a liner on this journey for myself and a caretaker for his process!!!! Would love to follow your journey!
