Relationships!

Has anyone had a bad relationship after VSG? Has VSG been the cause of the problems or break up? I'm wondering because I feel their may be some changes in my 10 year relationship after VSG and I'm kinda worried. my boyfriend loves food ! And it's uncomfortable already not being able to eat the way he does or enjoy a bit here and there due to my reflux I have to watch everything I eat. I'm just wondering how its going to be after the surgery relationship wise. Thanks

I love food. I still cook. Watch cooking programs. Take cooking classes with my wife. I'm fussier about what I eat because I can only eat a small amount, but my relationship with food is better.

It hasn't affected the people around me except that they're happy that I'm healthier and happier. If my wife was eating a bag of chips in front of the TV, I might have some hommus and some carrot sticks. Or nothing, and that's ok too.

I'm over 6 weeks out and lost 24 lbs. Husband is jealous. Never thought that would happen. Makes little comments about me staying after work to go to the gym, being friends with guys on Facebook, etc. He respects my new way of eating - that's not a problem at all, but the jealousy thing is a bit hard to take. And I think he's suddenly bothered by the money I'm spending on new clothes (I work in a very conservative, professional atmosphere and need to dress the part). He never ever says anything about money.

And I'm not anywhere near goal yet. . .

Anyone who really loves u can love u with or without the sleeve. The sleeve will really weed out the loyal people in ur life.
