I saw the dietician Today. I feel good he measure my belly. Wow! I have a 33 inch waist it was about 42 inch before surgery & diet. He advice me on food & such. He told me he doesn't want me eating anything with fat. So make sure it's zero. I guess now I have to watch out for sugar & fat.

I come home feeling good next appointment in 2 weeks. Tell hubby why the f** did I do that for. He starts with why do you need a dietician for? You don't know how to eat? Who you were raised by didn't they teach you the right way to eat? I was like ok I'm sorry I mention anything. I won't say anything else. He says my 4 year old needs one. (She has a nutrionist & she's still not gaining enough weight,but she's fine.)

Now I'm feeling sorta bad. Like only this group & Facebook has support. I feel sad like no one cates but I'll be fine. Thanks for reading

Thank you I seem to be putting one hundred percent into this life change but he doesn't see it. I feel he thinks it's one of those many diets it's for a few days or months & I will blow up again. I'm not here to prove him wrong or right. I'm doing what's best for me. I haven't changed. I cook daily & take care of the kids. the only thing changing is my body. My personality. I was like not talking to much now I walk in anywhere. Hello make a joke or two. I feel happy even though when I come home I'm sad & depress. I'm happy exercising. I'm happy when he isn't home. He makes me feel bad about my self.

What!!! 33 inch waist - thats Cra Cra (as the kids say!). You are doing such a good job! You know you hubby doesn't know the right stuff to stay so don't worry about it. That's what we r here for. Having a nutritionist doesn't mean you don't know how to eat. It just means you want to learn new or better things. We go to school to learn etc. So what things are you going to start eating?

@mamiof3kids, all I can say is when I had my RNY 8 yrs ago I went through the same exact things u r going through. I decided I would give him time because it was a huge adjustment for all of us. I gave him three years after that and he never came around. All I can say is talk to him & express how you feel, if he is smart he will listen if not u will get tired like I did. Good luck and focus on your journey. Us latin women tend to put everyone else before ourselves and we do not realize that we owe it to ourselves to be happy!

My hubby will never be an understanding man. He feels he is better then me(that's my feeling) I think he will never accept my change & new life style. I'm at the point that I don't care anymore. I will attend my appointments & do what I have to do & ignore his idiot ass.

I'm the kind of person that will call a idiot a idiot to his face I'm not pc. And I don't believe any one should take abuse from anyone what makes one person better then any other NOTHING . I have seen that my wife's ex has done to her and after 14 years we have been married she has come out of the shell he put her in. As for kids is it better to take the abuse to keep the family together and be unhappy. As young as my wife's kids were they still new what was going on 14 years later they think their dads a dick and have grow up to be great kids

The science of nutrition has changed since we were kids and culturally you have possibly learned some dietary things that aren't considered the healthiest option (this goes for every culture). There is no shame in getting professional help to better yourself.

Your hubby just isn't on board with all this change and may be scared that you will become so confident that you will cheat or leave him. He could be seeing more about himself that he doesn't like. This is no excuse for him to be a butthead either way. This seems like a wonderful and safe place to vent and talk to others for support!

      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.
