fargosk 22 Posted March 6, 2018 Hey there, Hubby was adamant before my surgery he was not interested, but he went in for a consult last week and is now working through insurance requirements! I am happy he wants to be healthy and it will be great working together. Watching him eat Pasta and garlic bread is tough when I'm sipping on a Protein Shake or 3 oz of chicken breast! Has anyone gone through this process with your SO? Pros? Cons? I read somewhere that divorce rate for couples where one has gone through WLS is 85% but what if both?? 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had mine 11-15-2017. I supported her in her journey and she returned the favor on mine. Going on 33 years together no problems here.....that post on the divorce rate, I call BS 6 SleevedSoulSistah, FluffyChix, Sosewsue61 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sosewsue61 3,185 Posted March 7, 2018 Yay! I call bs on the divorce rate as well, I mean how many people were actually polled and then compared to the national divorce rate based on 'what demographics'? 2 FluffyChix and SleevedSoulSistah reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our date nights will be super cheap! He's been very supportive and took good care of me while I was recovering. I'm happy I get to do the same. 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fargosk 22 Posted March 7, 2018 @doug548 Divorce is not really in our vocabulary but it was a little shocking. We Celebrate our 10 years this May, he's stuck with me! Its so sweet you two have worked together to have a healthy lifestyle. I'm excited to be able to show our 3 boys what healthy eating and actions look like. 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
