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!

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

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!

      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.
