Bariatric Buddy
2 weeks from today
So 2 weeks from today at this time my surgery should be done or close to being done. I am excited but imagine when the time gets here I will be very nervous.
I told my brother on Easter Sunday and he was surprisingly on board with it because he knows I have struggled my whole life with weight. I am glad I told him. I decided I would tell my mother as well. So tomorrow after my preop with my surgeon I am planning on going over to her house to tell her. It is what is I have decided and this is my decision and I refuse to be judged by her. My new life is going to begin with out without her on board. :)

You are so right Cindy. You are doing the best thing for you. Thank goodness you have another ally in your corner. Praying that your mom sees that you are making a healthy decision too. Mindset is a good place to start. Keep your attitude postive. Looking forward to sharing this adventure with you. Your surgery date will be here very soon. Here in your corner for support too. Hugs

I am so glad to hear your brother is on board. I hope it goes half as well with your Mother, but if not, just stand your ground and be proud you are taking this step to improve your health and life.
I know how excited you must be! Prepare for a wonderful and sometimes frustrating, but very rewarding journey.

Lost 114 lbs. working on getting rid of a recent 10 lb regain...and WILL succeed!
Dont be nervous about your surgery, I wasnt. I stayed excited through this whole process, and would do it all over again if need be.
Me, I told/tell everyone about my RNY, if they dont like it... They can, ummmmmm well (use your imagination here)!
I havent had any negative feedback yet, and hope that all goes well with your plans for your journey, and I am glad you wont have to go it alone.
