Star Jones

Just got a approved for surgery today, so excited! I haven't really told anybody I was considering surgery to help me loose weight. So today I was in such a good mood, I decided to tell a family member I was considering the wls. Big mistake, the first words out of her mouth was, "don't do it, you don't want look like star jones do you" I laughed but I was really hurt and scared what people/family are going to think of me. I know I shouldn't worry about what others think because I'm doing this to save my life. I really wish I hadn't said anything.

    I kept it quiet, my husband and two of my three kids know... the only reason my other child doesn't know is that he is in Korea right now and I didn't want to worry him being so far away. Last fall
