closure
I'm a 28 yr old female, just beginning the WLS journey. Sept 2008 was the first time anyone brought it up to me, meaning medically, and every one of my doctors seem to be in agreement. I never considered WLS in the past...why...I honestly don't know, so I was a bit taken back, overwhelmed, and scared at the thought of WLS. I've been researching like crazy lately...I just want all the info I need to make a decision.
My family is not supportive really...so far my dad and my fiance are on my side. I figure if I can't get my family to be supportive, and honestly they're not supportive of much so this shouldn't suprise me, I'll have the new friends I'll make in the groups plus you all. I do have friends already who are supportive. The only thing that they are worried about is the surgery. They know I need it, but are worried about all the negative stuff they've heard. I can't blame them...I am too! It's either take a chance now or die at a young age and not get to live my life.
I've got too much fight in me to just give up on myself.
