Hi all
I need some advice from the forum over a subject ongoing.
I've done my research, found the right consultant, surgeon and Hospital and made my decision to have a bypass, and i'm happy and content that i've made the right decision for me.
Now my problem is i cant bring myself to tell friends and some of my family that i'm having this done.
My wifes in full support and i've got the backing and support of my Mother, but i cant bring myself to tell any of my close friends about it.
At the moment the press seem to be having a field day with gastric operations (mainly due to the Fern Britton thing), its seen as cheating or an easy option, and i think deep down i'm afraid that people will think i'm cheating because i'm to weak to lose weight through conventional dieting.
So my question is - what and how do you guys out there tell people that matter to you about what your having done.
Thanks for your help
Richard
