Anyone ever have your family go totally against your decision to have the surgery?

I mentioned having the surgery before, but never really started the process. Everyone was against my decision. Even my mom, whom I just recently lost. Now that I've lost her, and part of the reason that she is no longer with us is because of weight issues, I thought for sure that my husbands opinion about this would change. Now I'm even more into finding out information and will be having the first step done, the physical and blood work. Right after my Mom passed he said he would be ok with it, but that he loved me no matter what and that I had to promise that I was doing it for health reasons. DUH!!! Now that I'm actually taking steps to make it happen, he's totally against it again. Help? How can I make him see that this is safe and probably in my best interest?
