Sounds like you will have to do this on your own. It's possible you will have all of us here. Do you have support from your parents and friends? I wish you the best stay strong and do what is best for you. Maybe your hubby will come around.

It won't be easy, but hopefully we can all support and help each other. My husband eats more, smokes more and goes back and forth on his helpfulness since my surgery. I feel like I'm on a path towards health and happiness and my husband is going in the opposite direction.

Surgeons and hospitals often have support groups and they are powerful. They usually have gastric bypass patients in all stages from pre-op to years post-op and everything in between. Great place to make friends since you have a lot in common right from the git-go. Most of these folks are open books and you can ask them anything that you can imagine and usually get an open, honest answer. Friends and other family members are usually supportive as well. And this forum - O M G! So many knowledgeable folks who are anxious to share their experiences and help anyone who needs it. You're on a life changing journey and the absence of one person's support cannot defeat your commitment. You're gonna love the new you!!

I feel you girl. My issue is I don't mind not eating but hearing I want pizza drives me nuts especially when I was a pizza lover.

Just leave him if he won't support you. Why deal with that?

She probably has a little more invested in him than to just leave him just to not deal with it. Husbands are people too. Don't give up on him, I'm sure he'll come around. She's just frustrated and I get that. Wishing you the best:)

      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.
