I too am dealing with family's negative view.

Bonnie, you are not alone in this. I am trying to convince my husband, daughter and sister that I need this surgery. They have all told me I can do it with diet and exercise. That I don't need this surgery.. They are afraid they might lose me. I really don't know what to tell them or how to convince them that I see this as my only way of finally getting the weight off and living a normal life. Does anyone have any suggestions?
