Good thing is your doing this for YOU and not them! Stay strong and do whats best for you.

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt - if he was fine before, then maybe the closer it gets to your surgery date, he's probably getting scared for you. It's hard to watch someone undergo this, he may just feel helpless. He may be scared you'll change and not want him any more...

But you've come the right place to find people on your side ;-) If this really matters to you, don't get down about the lack of support, use it to fire you up. You have decided to do this for you and you can do it with or without anyone else's support.

Only you can make the surgery a success, not your husband, mum or sister. But they can distract you, weaken your focus. Don't let anyone do that to you now that you have come this far. You deserve better.

Keep posting here, you will get support and strength from the community on here. Hang in there, don't give up - or give in!

Thank you so much everyone..at first my mom and sis was all for wls, in the beginning..but when they notice, I'm all into it now..they backed out on me. Especially when a family friend had wls, 1yr ago. And she looks to skinny and sickly..their afraid I will get to skinny and sickly.
