Anybody else's boyfriend been very against surgery?

My boyfriend of 1 1/2 years is very against this surgery. He feels that I could accomplish the same weight loss with diet and exercise, never mind the fact that I have no thyroid and therefore have severe hypothyroidism, which makes weight loss very difficult. Also, I am only 22 years old, and he feels that I am too young for this surgery. My parents are 100% behind me, the insurance co. has approved me after one week, and I feel I am ready for this. However, I am terrified of losing him, and having to through the whole dating process again. I want to spend the rest of my life with him. This is killing me. Please write back.
