Sorry to hear he is being a jerk.... I asked hubby to come with me to my class after that he was on board, he didn't realize what major sacrifice and decision this is for you and how much have thought/contemplated before deciding. its about YOU not him.

I hope he has a change of heart or the new you dump his sorry self and will be devastated. Hang in there.....

I did the same, asked my husband to go, he was all like, "you don't need surgery, you can do it yourself" and by the end of the seminar, he understood and has been great support for me. I'm sure your husband will come around and see its the best thing for YOU. Good luck with your surgery!

So my surgery is this morning. Since the beginning my husband has been in denial. Last night he tells me he doesn't want me to go it. I let him know I'm going forward with or without his help. So he calls me selfish and sleeps on the vouch! WTF!!! I'm so pusses right now!

I'm so sorry Lisa. I hope he comes around and realizes this is about you...but then again, that is probably the major problem. If you are like most women, you put everyone else first all of the time...it's wonderful that you allowed yourself to take this major step to have a better, healthier life. I hope he will understand that you are important too and he is being a big baby. Lol men....ugh!

Lisa, I am so sorry he is doing this to you when you are trying to change your life for the healthier. Their is an underlying reason why he is acting like this, so until he wants to speak honestly with you, I would hold strong and not call him. Do you have other family to support you and assist you? My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I had my surgery yesterday morning and my husband still hasn't called me. That makes me very sad.

I'm so sorry honey, it is hard enough to do through this with supportive people, I hope everything works out.....it sounds to me like maybe your husband is afraid of you getting skinny and leaving him....I think they think of our fat as an insurance policy. He might just need some reassurance. Remind him that he is in love with you and you love him.....and that our bodies skinny or fat belong only to each other. Remind him that it is you he loves not your body, ....sometimes our men just need some reassurance. I know it is hard when he is the one being insensitive, but all you can do is try. I don't know your whole situation, but I've been through marriage counseling a few times and have made it 14 years with many hardships along the way....if you ever want to chat PM me.

God bless your marriage

      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.
