I guess my overall questions are...
If you have already informed your family/employer/co-workers that you were planning on gastric bypass (which is really frightening to me...)...
How did you go about doing so?
Were you nervous about comments people would make? (I explained it to my boyfriend like this..."A lot of people now a days do not want to tell people what names they have picked out for their babies in fear of hearing negative comments about it" SO I guess I am just nervous that people's first instinct is to say "You don't need to go through surgery!" etc, etc.
Did you feel you were explaining your decision to do so a lot?
Any advice for those who broke the news to the people closest to them is greatly appreciated! Thanks.
