My First Disclosure...

[GivingItMyAll 168]

Outside of my immediate family and my bff, I have not told anyone that I will be sleeved until today. I was talking with a co-worker about end of year pressures and such and the conversation turned to summer plans. She asked if I was going away and before I knew it I told her that I planned to spend my summer recuperating from surgery. She was very concerned and then I told her about the sleeve and what I hoped to achieve through the surgery. She was very supportive. Now, let's see how fast this travels through the rumor mill.

Lol, I purposely told the biggest loud mouth in our department, specifically so she could get the word out. Ironically, two other nurses have come out of the closet about their plans to have WLS too. The truth shall set you free.

I too made my first real disclosure this week. It was to someone who I'd heard was having the surgery as well. It actually felt good to talk to someone outside of my family about it. At this point, I'm over the whole thing of wondering what other people will say and think. Don't get me wrong. I'm not going to advertise my surgery, but if asked, I will certainly admit it.

I told my family and bf and SIL and there she had told everyone else. Love the telephone line theory. My nephew asked me how I was losing my weight and my SIL told him I was eating healthy and I added in that I had WLS. I really don't care what people think. But if my story can help someone else, then why not share. It's my choice and boy am I really happy about it too! I love how I look and feel right now.
