What I usually say to strangers is that I'm doing it for health reasons (not exactly true, I want to look good!). People understand that health issues can be personal and they usually don't ask for more explanation than that. If it's someone close to you, I would be more sincere and say something like, "I'm doing this for myself, so that I can look and feel how I want to look and feel. I understand this is a big change, but it's making me more like the person I want to be and that means a lot to me. I'd appreciate it if you supported me."1

I lie and tell them that I'm done losing.0

Unless it's my doctor, I say thanks for your input. I'm an adult. I do what i want, as long as it doesn't affect other people.1
