My relationship is on the rocks!



Recommended Posts

I thought getting thin would solve all our problems but I now think it is going to cause more! I am only at the start of my journey and already arguments are starting over money,all our differences seem to be coming to the forefront and I am seriously on the brink of leaving if he won't. But how do you know when to stop trying, after 7 years I have dedicated all my life to him and now I don't know what to do?!

This is supposed to be an exciting time for me but I am so worried about things.;)

Fairydust, This Could Be A Hard Time. Do You Have Any Children? That Makes It Harder. Do You Think He Might Be Willing To See Someone To Talk About Your Problems? If Not A Councler Than Your Minister. With A Minister It Is Free And I Know That Is One Of The Problems. I Believe You Need To Seek All Avenues First Before You Call It Quits. A Relationship Lasting 7 Yrs Is A Long Time To Give Up On. I'm Sorry He Is Not There For You. If He Can Not Give You The Support You Need With The Band And All That You Are Doing, Then Remember Us. We Will Be Here For You.

I Will Keep You In My Prayers And Hope With Time, This Will All Work Out. Talking Should Be A Good Thing. Good Luck

Your post has had a lot of views, and only one reply so far, and I think that's because the first thing many people are thinking is "Why did you think being thin would solve your problems?"

There shouldn't be any physical trait that anyone has that if changed, would solved all of the problems they have with another person. Honestly, if that were true, the other person wouldn't be worth being with, in my opnion.

I don't know what your issues with your husband are, but my sister and her husband are having some significant issues right now, and what my mom said to my sister was "Stick it out until you are sure you have no doubts about ending it".

Good luck getting this all sorted out.

      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.
