Not sure who I should tell!

[HanSolo1977 261]

I'm telling as few ppl as possible. I have enough anxiety issues without folks judging or making a fuss over me. I've told maybe 10 ppl at most that i'm going to be out a few weeks, even fewer why.

When it comes to "how are you losing so much weight?" My answer will be clean living, diet and exercise... which isn't far from the truth

@ Iwanttobethin : my surgery is the same date. Would you like to be surgery buddies??

No. Just mag citrate the day before and clear fluids for two days. Easter dinner will be interesting.

I have the 2 week pre-op diet. Clear liquids the day before with the mag citrate. My hubs told me not to worry about cooking Easter dinner.

I have told five people- husband, mother, sister, very good friend, and my boss (who is wonderful). Aside from that I told folks that I was having a hernia repair to help with acid reflux that is causing some issues with ulceration (which is actually the the truth since I did the hernia at the same time as RNY). Everyone knew/saw that for the last 8 months or so I was eating a lot healthier and exercising, and I had already lost about 26lbs which folks had commented on previously. My main reason for not being more open at work isn't my department but rather folks in other departments who might lean more towards being catty or telling horror stories.

I hate to be that person, but be careful posting your email publicly. Spam bots and other unsavories can grab your email right out of this post. Just want everyone to be safe!

I'm in the similar boat... My parents, sister and husband now. I will not tell anyone else. People are easy to judge and I don't want to hear it.

I don't want to tell my boss, even thou I will be out for 2/3 days.

I wonder if the Doctor will say on a note I got my gallbladder removed?
