I'm really thinking of keeping things private. Of course my husband would know, but I don't want anyone else to know. I don't even want to tell my kids. Well my youngest would be too young anyway, but my oldest would tell the world. I don't know if I could really pull that off (because I'm really an open book). But did anyone keep things private? If so, how?

For those who decided to tell. How did you go about stating things? I just don't want to deal with people just telling me to stop eating, or try such and such a diet.

I told a few people at work who I feel close to and my family. That's it. Now I kind of wish I hadn't told anyone at work because I can feel them watching me. Although I have lost a fair amount of weight, it's not really noticeable yet, so that's a pain. Then again they were watching me before surgery anyway, watching what I ate, etc. . .
