Rita.... You go Girl... Single digits here you come WOOO HOOOO Tam

LOL!! It's the same ole' me...sometimes I think the same thing!!

Families can suck at times, add jealousy and it is not a pretty picture. My family was so negative about this surgery before I got it. No interest in my 3.5 years of research or even my reasons. Change to the status quo is very threatening. I bet your sister is feeling threatened and the best thing is to ignore her and whatever issues she has at the moment. I saw my pyschiatrist yesterday. He's been my doc for years but also does a lot of pre WLS evaluations. I was discussing my recent troubles with my DH, and he said many people gain the weight back, not to deal with adverse reactions they get from their loved ones. I know I thought about it when I was fight with DH. You, we all, need to do what's best for us. Everyone else can deal with it in their own way and their own time. - Torrey (291/193/160)
