QOD 6/30
Hi Lorraine
It depends on my mood. But usually I just say "I had bariatric surgery." The reactions I get are strange - a LOT of people don't know what bariatric means and they just say "Oh" and nod their head!
Some people - mostly people who are overweight - say "Why would you do that instead of Weigh****chers or......." I just say "Each of us has to decide what is right for us".
And if someone is actually interested I am happy to tell them about the surgery.
But if they say "How much weight have you lost?" I just say "A lot, can't you tell?" (What I really would like to say is "How much money do you make?" But they probably wouldn't get it that it is none of their business.)
Have a great day.
