So in about 3 hours I get to go out to dinner to celebrate my mother in laws birthday. two sister in laws will be be there.
I haven't told any of them that I got the sleeve.
Rewind about 5 years. When I first met them (the sisters) I was 145lbs. They were very nice. Thought maybe I would be friends with the one who was my age.
Then I got pregnant. Ate, ate and ate some more. Had a baby, weighed 200lbs. Got pp depression, turned to food. Weighed 250lbs. now the sisters keep their distance. like their gonna catch my fatness if they share air with me. One has a gym in her house, the other trains for marathons. They eat, sleep and drink fitness. I didnt tell any of them about my sleeve. I already know they would say to me "why didn't you just diet and excercise" and behind my back "she's so lazy she had to get surgery to loose weight" I don't need to explain myself to them. The people who care about me all support me and know about the sleeve.
The problem is.......
I won't be eating much, obviously. No problem, I can say I'm Watching what i eat. My problem is that my 3yr old son likes to explain to people how the doctors cut mommy's tummy out and so mommy can't eat a lot.
Then they're all gonna look to me for an explanation.
This should be an interesting dinner.
