Spouses Sleeved Too

My hubby getting sleeved in November. Anyone have both sleeved? Does it make it easier.

I am being sleeved in October and hubby is being done in December...so we will be in the same boat. I would assume it is easier to change your entire lifestyle at your home. At least I know when grocery shopping we are eating the same foods and not special meals for me and different meals for him.

Is your spouse sleeved or getting sleeved?

I got sleeved 2 weeks ago he gets his in November.

my hubby and I got ours the same day, same surgeon. it's been just amazing. we have been going through the stages together and fighting the tough first week together. now we are a month out and we are able to support each other and enjoy the journey. plus we save tons of money from not eating out and sharing 1 serving of anything!!!!!

My husband and I got the surgery within two weeks of each other. It has as been very helpful having someone to learn with. The one rub though is that my husband has lost 90 pounds, and I have lost 50. You cannot compare a man's loss to a woman's.

Yes I already know all about that ... My pre op diet 10lbs his so far 20 ... He will probably have 40 off before the sleeve and be at 70 the first month. He has more to lose than me though.

My husband and I had our 2 weeks apart. I'm 1 week post op tomorrow and he's starting week 4. It's definitely easier for us. We made the decision to do it together for this purpose. Good luck with yours. I wouldn't go back for anything!
