Topic: RE: When & How are you telling people?
I've only told a few people, including two who have had WLS. I haven't told anyone at work, I guess they'll figure it out once I start losing weight quickly and after taking off a week from work. I laughed at my sis' response, "Why don't you just try LA Weightloss again? You did well on that plan." Yeah, so well that they went out of business! I'm sure once reality hits me after the surgery, I'll be very open and honest about it, but I still don't want to jinx things and talk too much about it until the day comes.

I would start the Biotin now. I take three a day and buy them from Walmart. I've heard of people taking the prenatal vitamins but I couldn't stand them when I was pregnant. No way was I taking them now. I'm happy to have my four Flintstones chewables. Even this far out my surgeon said it's fine. He told me I can switch to a multi "big girl" vitamin whenever I'd like to. But, it got my daughter taking her vitamins and, well, Flintstones are kind of yummy. It's not broke, my labs are fantastic so I'm not fixing it.

How long before your surgery should you start with the Biotin? What about pre-natals? Some people say they take those also, whats your take on those?

Unfortunatly for me I told my family. I wasnt going to tell my friends or co-workers, but Im glad I told them. They are the most supportive. I mean I get the occasional, "are you sure?" but pretty much they have been supportive. Now my family, I swear I wonder sometimes if they really are my family, is another story. They all believe that I am taking the easy way out and believe if I just stopped eating I could lose the weight. RIIIIIIIIIGHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTTT!!!! Hasnt worked yet guys. So if you havent told anyone yet, please make sure to really give it some thought, because you cannot take it back once its out there.
