Some of my close friends and most of my immediate family know what I'm having done, but I'm not sure who else I should tell. My family is scattered all over the U.S. , but we all try to see each other at least once a year. I'm feeling self conscious about showing up to a reunion a hundred pounds lighter and trying to explain it and why I never said anything. Also, some of the people I work with know, and I'm caught between wanting people to mind their own business and just wanting to tell everyone so I don't get asked "what diet are you doing?" A hundred times a day. I'm being really defensive about this surgery, I don't know why. It just sucks that the results are so outward and obvious that everyones going to notice, and you really can't blame people for being curious. I want to keep it private but you really can't.

Yeah, I wanted to be private about it as well, but as the pounds dropped, people at work were asking me how am I losing all this weight? I decided not to lie about it if they asked me, but I am not volunteering the information. Of course, there are people who know about it who I didn't tell, so word is getting around even though I told the few people who know that I am trying to keep it private.

Arrg. I guess I'm just gonna do the same and tell people if they ask but not volunteer any info. Lol if they wanna be in my business theyre gonna have to man up and straight up ask me lol.
