Hubby is no help

So I purchased new jeans today.. DH used to make jokes about my mom jeans. Recently he saw my "before" jeans and commented how he can hardly remember me wearing them.

So I was excited for him to see my new skinny jeans. I turned around and asked did he like the way they fit.

He said he felt he was being set up. I used to want to know did I look fat now all I want to know is does my butt look flat

ROFL, men are always afraid they will be accused of saying the wrong thing....which they usually so. Ask a friend whom you trust to give you feedback. flat butt or not....getting out of the mom jeans is huge victory. congratulations.

When I lost a lot of weight on the Atkins Plan, my husband pulled out a pair of jeans that I used to wear all the time. He opened them up and asked whose they were. When I told him they were mine, he was simply astonished without saying anything. If it wasn't me lightening up the air by laughing at them/him/myself, he wouldn't have felt comfortable doing anything. Our loving husbands love us unconditionally and as he has said many times, 'from the tent to the g-string, I will love you the same.' Except now, I don't ever want him lovin' a tent ever again ;)

      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.
