Afraid to tell family...
Dec 20, 2016
I have started the process of getting wls. I have told a few friends and they are all supportive. My family on the other hand? Im not so sure. Currently i am 318, 5'2, and this isn't the biggest I've been. I've tried dieting and working out, i had lost about 40lbs but it came back. I have a long maternal family history of health problems. My grandparents have all passed, my mom, and even a close uncle. I have another uncle who is having problems with his diabetes, to the point where he is blind. Anyway, the family that i live with now, have also yo yo dieted. I've seen them go through every diet system that is out there. They even went gluten free for awhile. How do i get them to support my need and want of wls? They think (from previous conversations), that this is taking the easy way out.
