What do they think?



Change is going to come and what do my family and friends think about it?

My Husband

When I told my husband about it, he wasn’t against it but he wanted to go with me to ALL appts. And here what is exactly going to be going on. After that he’ll make the decision if he’s ok with it too. His point is that he doesn’t want anything bad to happen; he doesn’t want to lose his wife and etc. I totally understand what he is feeling.

My Mom & Dad

I told Mom about what my decision was and surprisingly she wasn’t against it. She told me to pray about it and whatever I decided she would be there for me. At first I didn’t even want to tell her at all but this time I told her about my research that I’ve been doing for it and why I made the decision and she was so positive. We both would practically die if we lost each other. My Well I haven’t had the chance to talk to him about it……well…I actually don’t know if I want to tell him about it at all. I’m kind of scared of his response. I shouldn’t be because my Dad loves me and is always there for me through whatever I go through but I’m kind of just not telling him until I find out details for sure and if I am even approved. So Dad will have to wait.

My co-workers

I’ve been telling some people at work about it, only the people that are close to me because I don’t think its anybody else’s business. My close co-workers are very supportive and if I get it done they are going to be my support too. At work we tend to snack, snack, snack and snack, so with support from them too I know I’ll be strong.

My friends

I’ve only told a few friends, I don’t have many friends so I guess I should say that I’ve told 2 friends. My 2 friends asked a lot of questions basically the usual what is it, why do you want it, do you feel you need it and what are the common side effects. Since I’ve been researching for so long I had the answer to EVERY question. I was fully prepared for their negativity and their thoughts of being against it but surprisingly they both had my back and said if I needed anything during the process just let them know.

Dr. Takahashi

My 1st doctor’s appt. is tomorrow. I’m anxious and excited at the same time. The last couple of weeks my weight has been like a Yo Yo, up 3lbs. down 2 lbs. up 1 lb. down 3 lbs. It’s so annoying!

I appreciate all the thoughts, support of prayers from my family and friends and we’ll see what the doc says tomorrow.

Until next time, have a great week!
