Since my weight loss is noticeable, friends have been asking me what is my secret.
Since I am a very private person, I didn't tell many people I was having the surgery so as not to be the object of conversation or judgement.
It's tricky now since the sleeve has been such an amazing tool for me and I have no regrets, and I couldn't have lost 70 lbs (and counting-I'm 5 months out from surgery) without it, but I am not telling people. I tell them that I went to a nutritionist, drink lots of water, take vitamins, and portion control, and working on emotional eating. Which is all true. I saw a friend of my good friends today who is very overweight and has been struggling for years. I want to tell her since I think it would be a great option for her. She is doing weight watchers and exercising, but easily has 100 lbs+ to lose. She asked me about my weight lose. I didn't tell her about the sleeve since I don't want the word to get around, but I am feeling conflicted....thoughts?
