Personally, I think he's an insecure little man and that's something he has to work on. He's probably afraid that you're going leave him after. That said... I haven't read all the responses but may I suggest asking him to go to a meeting for other spouses and significant others. It's comforting to have full family support but ultimately you have to be ready for it. If that's what you want, embrace it. You may have some issues after, or if you're like me, you will have no issues at all. My only little issue was that I wasn't able to consume the 1liter of Water within the 1st 24 hours so I had to stay in the hospital an additional day. I followed my doctors instructions and I had so problems at all. November 7th was 9 years for me. I've ran a few relays and October 15, I completed my second 1/2 marathon. At 295 pounds, I could not fathom this. What does you're husband for exercise? Tell him it could be fun going walking or running or going to the gym together. I didn't reach my target weight but at 5' 7" 185 pounds I feel great. After your surgery, keep inviting him to go walking with you...maybe he'll change his thought process. Best wishes on your surgery.
