I'm sorry to hear this. Your spouse is supposed to be your biggest supporter. Have you talked to him and let him know how you feel? It sounds like you need to have a heart-to-heart conversation with him and let him know exactly how he is making you feel and it's not ok. Maybe he doesn't realize how it's affecting you. ((Hugs))

i am sorry you are going thru this however, if you read the threads it is very common. Your husband sees the changes that you are making and it is making him uncomfortable. My husband had the surgery with me but before surgery he used to say "yeah you are going to get skinny to find a new man." "He was teasing, of course" but I think that was a concern of his. Then one day he said it and I said My new man is in the making with me as i become a new woman. It shut him up and he never said that again. I think in your case your husband is just scared that you are going to get all hot and sexy and drop him. You have to make him understand that you love him and only him and you are not going to leave.

Sounds like your husband is very insecure and scared. I hope things get better! :)

Oddly, I think it's your husband, who really needs the the support. Some of us forget we're not the only ones struggling with a new lifestyle. Think hard about how it is to be in his shoes. Make sure he knows he's still #1 and let him know things aren't going to change.. It's only going to get better

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
