Rumor about me having WLS? I tell anyone who asks. It is NOT a secret.
My daughter got a call from a girl she hasn't seen in a year asking if the rumor I had weight loss surgery was true.
She wanted to know if I was bad off like everyone else who had it. I am a success so far with no complications. It is so weird to me that she asked my daughter.
My daughter's friend has a mother who HATES fat and now that I have lost a bunch of weight wants to be a part of my success. She calls and asks me how much I have lost and how I am doing. She tells everyone how great I am doing and how I took charge of my health and becoming the person I was meant to be.
Is it just me who finds both reactions weird? Why do people I am not close to even care?
I am so glad to be free from so many medical issues.
People can be so frustrating.
I have a group of people "in" my life who have decided that since I got WLS it means that I've lied about everything in my life prior. I guess since it's an online group they just assumed I wasn't obese, because I've always been happy about my life, so now that I got WLS that somehow made me a liar? I don't get people at all.
