Those that mind don't matter.
And those that matter don't mind.
It's all relative. You'll come to understand that when someone has an issue with the surgery, it's usually THEIR issue, not yours. You have to choose not to feed into it, because, generally speaking, those that have not gone through the process have a very difficult time understanding why we've made the decisions we've made. What matters is that you are taking control of your life, you are a champion, and other's opinions are just that--opinions, which I'm sure you know from experience are like assholes--everybody's got one.
You do what you have to do, and the people that matter will fall right into their supportive positions. Anyone who thinks differently...well, sometimes unwanted pounds are shed in multiple ways. Find the sunny side and move towards it, and enjoy the people that choose to move with you. Leave everyone else in your skinny ass dust.
