Okay, I hit onederland today. I was very excited and texted my husband with the news since he was at work already. I've told a fair amount of people about my surgery and my husband had permission from me to tell his co-workers about it. He did not, however, have permission to tell them about onederland. In my opinion that was very personal. I don't particularly want his co-workers to know my starting or current weight. Well, he was "proud" and shared the news. I feel guilty being upset because I know he had good intentions, but I am upset. :(

It's natural to feel like that. What's done is done . He can't take it back anymore. If he apologized, let it go.

Some other major news will probably push yours in the background and it won't be so prime time anymore.

Congrats on making it to 1derland! Great acomplishment!

I can totally understand how you feel. I will say at least he was so proud of you he wanted to share it! And im sure not a single person even thought about the number and they were just as proud!!! Be happy that so many people are happy for you!

It sounds like he was proud and very happy for you! A lot of men don't understand how women feel about weight. I would say that if you didn't clearly tell him what not to share you should just let it go. To avoid it in the future explain to him what is acceptable to make public and what you'd like to remain private. Then celebrate! :-)

      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.
