EggplantMassacre

I'm so excited that we finally got our surgery dates today! My husband will be sleeved on July 29, and I will be sleeved on Sept. 14!!!

Columbus! Hope to have my surgery date this week. Will be done at West Ga Health in LaGrange. Can't wait!

Jinxxy5, are you in the Columbus, Ga area? I see your bibs from Big Dog!

You look beautiful!

Good luck! Hope everything goes well!

I'm struggling a bit with this, too...My husband and I are being sleeved together (6 weeks apart), and we've told our parents and a couple of close friends. I'm not sure about how to handle work, though. I think on some level, I'm still a little embarrassed that I've not been able to lose the weight on my own. While I know that this surgery isn't the "easy way out," I know there's still a negative stigma in the eyes of those who have never struggled with their weight. I guess I feel like I have to defend my decision, even though I know intellectually that it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks.
