My husband and I did the surgery and I have to say, it is really awesome. I had surgery first and his was 6 months after mine....we are like a two person support group. It's really nice to have someone who really gets its and so cheap to eat out. We spill every meal and still can't finish it.

It's nice to actually hear about good husbands (boyfriends) on here. Seems to be so many complaints about them on here. We (guys) are not all bad, :D

My dad did the same thing. He drinks his Protein Drink every morning and told me he was going to be eating like me. I took my mom grocery shopping and showed her how to read labels...we were in Walmart for three hours lol. We share recipes and I showed her how to bake fish which they eat 1-2 a week. My dads lost more weight post-op than I have lol. I think it's awesome!

That is super awesome. My husband started losing with me. Drinking shakes as Meal Replacements, cutting back on food amount and what type he eats and he has dropped 20 Lbs and is so motivated now. He says it wasn;t as hard as he thought it was gonna be.

We work out together 2xs a week and has a very active job.

so excited for you

It is such a wonderful thing to have your loved ones be so supportive. My entire family is very supportive. My husband is one of those healthy fit people ( which i hope to be soon) and tells me all he wants is for me to be happy. He says he doesn't care what package I come in because after 25 years of marriage, 4 kids and two grand kids he falls more in love with me everyday.

My hubby and i have also both had the sleeve. He went first, as his medical issues were more pressing than mine. I got mine done 6 months after his, and he has been such a help to me!

My husband did the same thing and it was probably the most supportive thing anyone has ever done for me. He also lost 25lbs during it! Sounds like your hubs is one of the super great ones!!

It's wonderful that your hubby is so supportive. I don't understand how people do it without the total and complete support of their other half. That will enable you to get through this surgery and recovery all the much easier because of his support. :)

I am so blessed to have my husband as my rock. He loves me no matter what and I am so thankful and grateful.

That's awesome!

My stepdaughters, who live with us (15&13) drank the evening Protein shake with me, or had a salad with lean Protein with me. The other meals Breakfast and lunch at school, they ate normal. I thought it was great they chose to support me by not eating all that stuff in front of me!

Glad to see him being supportive!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
