I am working with the hospital and my insurance to have the sleeve done. I think it may be one more month. My husband is against it completely. First of all he thinks it is "cheating", and secondly, he reminds me of how I have failed at everything else I have ever tried so how could I possibly succeed with this? He has never been overweight so I feel like he just doesnt understand. I gained 90 lbs with my daughter and was 210 when I got pregnant. She is now 3 1/2 and I still have this weight on me. Has anyone else ever went through this with a spouse or significant other? I need some advise please...

I understand where you are coming from and you make some good points. I started this whole process three months ago. I guess the main thing that frustrates me is he is not willing to listen or become educated. As of right now for this year my deductible has been met with my insurance company. That means less out of pocket expense. So I feel I should have it done this year if I am going to get it done. Thanks again for your advice

CONGATS! Great job!

Thanks. The next seminar is July 12th and he has to take this big test for school so he cant come with me. I was thinking of asking him to go online and do some research. I told him this morning that i need his support and do listen to his opinion but that this was ultimately my decision... I learned that was the wrong thing to say. That just made things worse. I will see if I can find an online seminar he could watch or something. I told him last night that I thought he needed to go online and educate himself... he didn't like that comment either. Thanks again for the response. He is the only thing holding me back, making me have second thoughts.
