I never thought my husband would worry about such things, but he asked me in all seriousness if I was going to dump him when I "got skinny". I just don't know how to handle questions like that. I am 47. Hooking up was not my style before I got fat so I don't see that changing. Plus, i waited until i was 39 before i found the right guy . I dont want anyone else. How do you convince your spouse you are not going anywhere?

Just keep telling your husband how much you love him, need him, appreciate his support and also show him thru your actions. It sounds like he needs some reassurance. Also, I think it's probably best to keep the other admirers words to oneself. I have always gotten unwanted attention from time to time, even at my highest weight. Some men like big girls, in fact my husband prefers a full-figured woman so I worry that he'll not be attracted to me once I get to goal. The most attractive aspect of any person, fat or thin, is really their self-confidence.

Just keep reassuring him that you love him & aren't going anywhere! My hubby & I have been married since I was 15 (I'm 52 now), deep down he knows I'm not going anywhere..but it is nice to see him jealous sometime! He is loosing right along with me, so I just always remember to tell him how sexy he looks & I love him! Guys like to hear those things too! & I personally do not keep these things to myself...we have learned its better to be open. We live in a small town & there are always someone around who knows someone..if he heard it from someone else it would be way worse.

      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.
