I did not tell anyone until about a month after surgery. I wanted to wait until I had my 1 month post op check up.

Hadn't planned on telling anyone but once my sister found out everyone in the free world was informed. I'm a very private person so other people knowing is pretty uncomfortable.

I told my sisters first. I have endless support from them. I hesitated to tell my father because he was always asking, how's the weight coming. I'm my head I thought, you still see it dont you ? I got so steamed. But you know, my sister talked to him about it and now he's one of the most supportive people on my journey. He wants me to be healthy. In my head, I thought he was being critical. It's bought us a little closer. We all have our own journey. Do whats right for you. As long as you have some support, you'll be ok. Good luck to you.

I'm not hiding but I have made the choice to only discuss my decision with Family & Friends that I know will be supportive. That has made my circle somewhat small lol but I'm okay with that. Not everyone is meant to move with you as you go forward.

My mom, brother, and cousin knows...thats it. I don't have time for the "you know that's not healthy. Why don't you just eat right and exercise?" Sermon from 98% of my very overweight family.

I am not telling my family either. They were not supportive of the idea in the beginning

I have told my husband and 2 of our 3 children and a few people I work with because one just had her surgery done 4 weeks ago. I will tell my father, sister, and son when it is closer. They will be supportive but if I told them now they would try to discourage me.

My family knows, but my in-laws do not. I don't want to hear it. I only need positivity from now on.

I haven't told anyone in my family they are all slender and unbothered by my everyday struggles with weight so this battle I am fighting alone

I'm having my surgery on the 29th of Sept...I have told a select few about my up and coming surgery...My wife of course has been with me the whole way...just recently told my mother and in-laws... everyone has been good with my decision but there is always one in my family that will try to give advice...
