My new NSV: My husband doesn't know me anymore



Recommended Posts

So we go to the grocery store yesterday. My husband and I split up to divide and conquer the pesky grocery shopping. After a bit, he starts to look for me. I was standing in front of him, just down the aisle.

He didn't recognize me right away :P

I think he likes my new body. I suspect it makes him feel like he's with a brand new woman. hahahahaha!

lucky ME! :D

He has lost so much weight as well (Sleeved same day as me) that I can get my arms all the way around him. It's so absolutely wonderful to be able to hold each other close like that. <3

Gamergirl that is great! My husband had a vsg as well, and he has walked right by me when meeting up to divide and conquer the grocery store as well :)

I went to a movie with wife, daughter, and granddaughters. It was an amazing animated feature that promptly put me too sleep.< /p>

I woke up to go to the bathroom and in my groggy state noticed that some slick gal in skinny jeans and long boots was sitting right next to my granddaughter with plenty of empty seats around!

The silverback gorilla in me rose up and I was about to let her have it when a light went on in my head.

Yup, it was grandma.

She looked at me funny and I took my red face down to the restroom. :angry:

This is such a big thing in our lives, that I feel fortunate to have him with me as we make this change. I want many, many more years with him and my boys. Here's hoping they come to pass!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
