My Husband, My Rock, My Support



Recommended Posts

Over the years I've called him other things, for sure.

My husband loves big women, he never once said I looked bad or should lose weight. He does agree that health is at the forefront, so weight lose is paramount.

I had my surgery on September 9th and he has not left my side once. He is my rock and my primary cheerleader. He tells me several times a day how well I'm doing and always encourages me.

Now there are the messes in the kitchen, OMG, and the smelly dog, OMG. And he loves to sleep in, but with everything going on, he is by my side and rubs my back.

My husband, My Rock, My support.

Thank you baby.

My husband.... tries. He's moved into more of the care giver role since my spinal injury but I still do most things. He's mostly afraid I'm not going to cook him any food for 6 months lol.

That's so fantastic. Having that type of support is so incredibly helpful!!

My husband is very similar. Never has he told me I'm fat or to lose weight. But health is important - and he wants me healthy so we have 50 more years together. We own a baking business on the side and he's already been prepped on what cakes he needs to carve/decorate while I'm recovering. All this while still protecting & serving as a Police Sergeant at night. I know that once my surgery is over, he'll be the biggest cheerleader in my corner. I couldn't imagine going through this alone.

      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.
