1 more month to go before I will get my surgery scheduled-Getting nervous

Love your blog...I may need to get myself an attorney too..LOL

Fear is completely normal. I had too much to live for, & too much to die for. But, I literally felt myself dying of obesity, & I just couldn't do it another day. The low surgery risks were worth it to change my life. And, I'm so glad I did! Day by day I feel more alive, & am doing physical things that broke my body a few months ago. And, most importantly, I'm enjoying doing them, I'm living in the moment.

I too lost a lot, many times, but always gained it back. Surgery is a tool, & I couldn't be successful at this point in my life without it.

Other than my husband, I only told my parents & best friend. It's nobody else's God da** business. Unless you're positive someone will support you, don't bother wasting your precious time telling them! Good luck

It was the necessary evil of working on a small team. I need her to cover my clients while I am out for surgery. I should have just lied and told her it was anything else.

Lying can often backfire. When people find out you've lied, it suddenly wrecks your credibility. And, really, people are going to gossip about your weight loss regardless, so at least this way they'll be gossiping about the truth instead of making up stupid guessing stuff!
