Has anyone encountered problems with their friends regarding decision to have surgery

I have a few "friends/coworkers" who actually are upset at me for having a VBG. They refused to call me at the hospital or at home to see how I was doing. I am 3 weeks post-op and have been attending a work related class on Mondays since coming home from hospital. I am constantly questioned at to why I eat this or why do I do that! I feel like I am under constant scrutiny and I have even told by these people that I am just lazy, and need to push myself away from the table, and that I purposely gained weight to have the surgery. Why would people be so non-supportive like this?
