I too have not been sleeved yet but for some reason I am compelled to tell everyone. I think it is my excitement that I have hope for a nice looking healthy body. Most people are supportive. I've had the occasional skinnies tell me 'Your not THAT BIG' to which I now reply 'do you know when a small person like you says something like that to a big person like me how it sounds? ' I hear you say I'm not THAT FAT, well in your opinion just HOW FAT do you think I should be to qualify? This pretty much shuts the down. My dad's wife, who is a tiny person, was not so much concerned about the surgery but more about the fact that she felt concerned i would get kidnapped in MX where I'm getting sleeved.
