Dealing with people that dont understand.

May 12, 2017

Has anyone had trouble with people understanding why you made the choice to have surgery? 

Just had my stress test done yesterday?  That was the last test that I had to complete to get my surgery scheduled.  I have dealt with my weight for 17 years up and down.  The past few years I have done nothing but gain weight and now I'm having a number of health problem and I just can't get the weight off.  This was not an easy choice for me to make at all I would love to be able to watch what I eat and work out and the weight come off. 

My boss at work has been giving me a hard time about having the surgery instead of working hard and getting the weight off that way.  She says that I'm taking the easy way out, if I worked hard I could get the weight off, but she doesn’t know all of the things that I have tried over the years and that I have tried this past year before I made the decision to go ahead with the surgery.  Then today she tells me how it’s not fair that our insurance is going to pay 100% of my surgery and others have to lose weight the old fashion way.  I don't know why I'm letting her get under my skin, but she does. 

Has anyone else dealt with someone like this and how did you handle it?
