Hi... I never wrote in forums , I am more of a reader( and I have enjoyed and learned through reading a lot of the topics offered through this forum)... But something happened yesterday that kind of shook me. First a little about me: I have my sleeve operation due on the 15th of February , I am a mother of 2 (a 2 and a half year old and a 1 year old - just got a full time nanny for them 2 months ago) - I currently weigh 249 pounds and I am about 5'5"... Yesterday I went out with my husband and he said he doesn't support my decision of doing this operation (even though we have been talking about this for the past few months - he has always said that he prefers that I didn't do it and it was ultimately up to me) and that he will not be part of my support system (as he puts it : if I'm going to do this to myself, I better be prepared to go through the consequences on my own) that freaked me out ... I am actually crying while I'm writing this... Didn't cry in front of him though... My question is : can I do this on my own? Is the pain after the operation unbearable that I need help after the 4 day stay in the hospital? I appreciate real answers - it's ok I'm a big girl I can handle it.

Thank you so much for your answers- they meant a lot . I am currently doing my homework and I want to buy all my supplies (vitamins and protein etc) this week to be prepared and having everything for the first 2 to 3 weeks ready at home so I don't bother anything with errands... Does anybody have a list like that that I can double check with mine ?
