Hi Nat2.0. Your post was long but well-written and my heart goes out to you. Sometimes an outward display of negativity masks a persons true feelings. Your hubby may be afraid that if you are successful at reaching your weight loss goal it may have a negative effect on your relationship with him. He may be afraid you will no longer want to be married. Stay strong, continue to seek his support, continue to let him know how important his love and support are and hopefully the situation will turn around. On the WLS support side, I too have suffered from Type 2 diabetes for 11 years (it took me a long time to finally commit to the surgery) and since the surgery, 2 of 3 diabetes medications have been eliminated. Really happy about that as one 30-day medication had a $525 co-pay! I fully expect to be off all diabetes meds at goal weight. Good luck to you Nat2.0, stay strong, stay committed and you will reach your weight loss goal!
