How do you get over the shame of having to have had WLS?

Just this morning someone point blank ask me if I had surgery. I said no because I didn't want everyone knowing. Well, the small town that I am in I know many know anyway. How do I get over the shame of having to have this surgery. I wish I could feel like so many on this site do. The heck with them all. How can I get over this.
