Husband Help

Recommended Posts

but I know my man and hes to selfish for that. He rarely thinks of me (christmas and birthdays are a nightmare!)

I just scared BeBe from my sudden outburst of laughing!!

That was too funny!

When I was first banded, Mike would buy (every now and then) something bad. When I would question him WHY he brought it into the house, he'd say: "You're the one starving yourself - Not ME!"

No Cookies, chips, colas, junk stuff... and men think we're trying to starve 'em!

Hey there,

take your vacation to enjoy yourself and each other for a while away from home and work and his family...

Then when you come back you need to work on yourself and the best choices you can do for you and hopefully hubby will fall in with you and want the same things you want...

"If" he doesn't then finally there isn't so much you can do. I know when those I loved tried to 'help' me out and I didn't want to do what they said, I went into 'bite your nose to spite your face' mode and ate even more. Your hubby is an adult and he has to decided to make good choices for himself...no chips in the house is a good start and he should respect that for you...but if he goes and buys them and eats them elsewhere then not much you can do.

So start by enjoying some time out together and then see if that can transfer into a mutual support for health and diet when you get home.

Have a great vacation!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
