Olusha, it ultimately up to you but I think the surgery is a very personal thing to be shared with close people only. Call me paranoid, but I don't like a lot people in my business, especially strangers. Only when you feel comfortable with any person and feel that they aren't going to judge you or blab off at the mouth about it then you should tell them. Don't make a big deal about it when you go out.

We all know that we can't eat "normal" restuarant portions anymore so you can either order off the kiddie menu or take home left-overs. And if you MUST explain why you ate ionly a few bites off of this or that tell them I didn't have much of an appetite or whatever! Or if you're close enough, tell the guy you aren't that hungry and share his meal. Does every single person need to know the real reason why I can't gorge out on food anymore sheesh! I digress.

BTW CONGRATS on your loss! Didn't I tell you not to worry...nobody listens to me.
