I am in the process of ridding my closet of all shirts that are bigger than a large(I wear medium now), and all pants & shorts that are over 34"(currently 32").

She is upset because she use to "borrow" my big clothes saying she really liked big cloths because the were all loose & comfy.

I'm not going back, so I don't even want them around.

Laura-ven took the words right of my mouth! My husband used to love to see me in his shirts...but then I got too big for them. :(

Yep- have her choose her favorite and it can be her sleep shirt, etc.

Tell her if you keep the bigger clothes you're likely to grow back into them. I'm sure she'd rather have the skinny you than the big clothes.

I am looking forward to the opposite! My husband has always been a little bigger than me but I could wear his shirts no problem, but they FIT. I can't wait until I put on one of his shirts and it swims on me :) Yaaaay. That'll feel good.

Slightly different but when I was talking to my 13 yo son about the surgery and what I'm working towards he says.... "That's going to be weird.... You aren't going to steal my clothes are you" yes.... Yes.... I desire to steal a 13 yo boys clothes.

Give her a big hug and tell her, "You can do it too, Honey! I'll help you through it!!"

You're married? There goes that board-crush. ;)

Lucky lady... she should keep a shirt. It'll remind you both where it came from and how much you've accomplished!

My wife sleeps in my big shirts, so she's taken a few to her side of the closet and keeps them as sleep wear. I told her a minimum of 3, jokingly, and somehow I can't find any of them anymore. She's got them stashed somewhere I'm sure.

Tell her that you prefer to see her loveliness in more feminine attire and compliment her when she does. Maybe she will stop wanting to look all frumpy in your big old clothes. ;)

I agree let her pick out her favorites and get rid of the rest,

Remember happy wife, happy life.

Mmmm, there is just something so snuggly and safe feeling about lounging around in your man's shirt. You have to let her keep of feel of them for that purpose. It just feels good.

      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.
