Should the wife come??



Recommended Posts

I go in for my pre op class on the 15th and my wife was wondering if that is something she should be there for?? She does almost all the food prep and is getting pretty nervous about what she will need to do to help me.

The more you both know the better. I always find that we seemed to absorb different parts of what was said....maybe it is the male/female brains at work!!!

Go into it together, and Celebrate your successes together!!!

She should definitely go with you. Your spouse will be your closest, greatest supporter. The more she understands about what you are going through, the better she will be able to support and help you through your journey.

she was planning on it, and now she will for sure. I have been really using my Mom for my support because she went through this with her bypass. My wife is really trying to help me out and now we are getting to the stages she can. I will let you all know how it goes on the 6th

Thanks

Chris

      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.
