Hi Sil,
Even if you do - don't let SOME people's negatives deter you from the process. After listening to all of what they had to say, I did come away with some positives:
1. Follow your Doctor's advice - to the letter! Ask if you have questions
2. Don't try to eat what you ate before the surgery - look at it as a way to change your eating habits for GOOD
3. Plan some fun things to do while you are transitioning - some of the folks in the group set intermediate goals at 25 lbs lost, 50 lbs, etc.
4. Stay focused on WHY you are doing this - for me, it's my health first, my appearance second.
Good luck with your process - stay in touch!
