Hi! I'm about to complete everything I needed to do for my approval, and my doctor will be submitting my paperwork for approval very soon. But that has nothing to do with my question...LOL

I was just wondering how you explained away your rapid weight loss to the people whom you chose not to tell about your WLS. I want to get my story planned in advance...

I told them I stepped up my exercise and am on a high protein, low fat & low sugar diet.

I pretty much told everyone I had surgery - and if i didn't tell them, they found out from other people.  Sometimes, now, I simply say "I changed everything about my life, how I eat, how I think, how I dress, how I move".
