my sister say I'm taking easy way out by having weight loss surgery

my sister say I'm taking easy way out by having weight loss surgery, but she doesn't realize how hard it is to be over 600 lbs. Do you have any advice you can give me to tell my sister I'm not taking easy way out by having surgery to help me live healthy and better life.
