Be prepared for your family to ask questions about bariatric weight loss and be ready/willing to answer them. Know that you may not receive the reaction you thought might occur. Make sure you are ready for negative and positive comments.
Prepare yourself mentally for what may happen and have a plan of how you will handle those situations. The more prepared you are, the less anxiety you will feel which will help give you a sense of calmness. Understand that your family may need some time to let the information soak in. Remember that you didn’t make the decision to have surgery overnight. Give your family the opportunity to absorb the information, think about it and come back to you with questions.
Clarian Bariatrics is here to help you. Encourage a family member to attend a FREE informational weight loss seminar or support group with you.
