What was I thinking:confused: ? Now that I am up for being banded I regret telling people at school. I go to school for hair and it's a smaller school. I love almost all the girls there. it's like a family and we all know each others life stories. problem is I made a choice not to tell my family except for my mother. But at school I was talking with a couple girls and more started to pop up and ask questions:eek: . I am proud of the fact I want the band. I just don't want my family to worry and give me a hard time so I decided against telling them. but of course now everyone at school knows. they are all very positive and excited for me. but now I am worried that they are going to think I will be dropping weight like with a the gb. They are all thin I am the big girl of the school and I don't think they know the difference between the procedures. I feel silly worring about this but as of 8 weeks to my surgery the questions are just flying at me from everyone:faint: . has anyone told people they work with? And how did it work out for you. thanks all for reading my silly rant.

Wait a minute...my best friend told my mother after I told her I was not going to tell her. I am not in control of my life! If she would tell my mother, she would tell anyone and everyone she meets...and this girl gets around. My mother, OMG, everyone in North Texas knows now. I am having Deja Vu. When I found out I was pregnant with my first child, I knew the right person to tell so I wouldn't have to call anyone else...gossip spreads faster then email. I can relax now, because everyone I know now knows my secret.

I hope they all know that they aren't suppose to know and don't tell me.

What were we talking about?

Ohhhh! You're the lady that had 'that' operation. Now I know what she was talking about.

Just kidding.

Funny post though!

My best friend (yes the one who told my mother) became a bandster today! She is doing great. You can see her on "before and after pics". Roberta Mims. That's my bud!
