Need honest opinions
That last paragraph you wrote is proof alone that it's all worth it regardless of the haters. I've had no "haters" come out, but I've overheard the negative comments about the surgery in general from people that were fishing for details (which I've given none, because they're not worth my time beyond this run-on sentence).
You've done this for you first, and anyone else second. And it's amazing to be that strong.
Keep going.
Cheers
Bravo!! You are doing great!

You can definitely see the difference in your face amazing!
Don't let other's bring you down, or try not too, easier said than done. Also, look at the things you can do now, that you couldn't before. The scale shows us weight loss, but it doesn't show what we can or can't do.
Keep up the great work!
