Does your HUSBAND/ WIFE know your weight????



Recommended Posts

He has known for years what my weight is and was. BTW, our 10 year anniversary is in September of this year!! My highest was 235 and the lowest I have been after high school was 182, but I am now at my lowest. I do weigh less than him now. I can even get in his jeans.

My husband did not know of my weight before the band. He knows now that I weigh less than him but does not know exactly.

My husband has no idea how high my weight has been. He's very small & I would be mortified still if he knew how much I weigh. It doesn't help that he's been ill lately & has lost 35 lbs off a 5'4" frame! I think I weigh 100 lbs. more than he. UGGGG!

Thanks all. I love this site!

Mine never knew my weight, but since he was not supportive of my getting the band, I told him. I thought it was pretty obvious at 5'0' and 263 pounds, but I guess not so I told him.

I told my dh a couple of weeks after surgery. It was hard for me to tell ANYONE how heavy I was (am).

Made mine take an educated guess pre-banding and boy was he way off! lol..He's 6'3" and 200lbs so it was always a big deal to me....now of course he knows and he's been so proud of me lately I dont mind talking to him about it!! It's almost liberating being able to say it out loud to him and my family...on the other hand I had no problem telling you guys, cause your all so great, dont judge and love me anyway! :)

My husband did not know my weight until last weekend. Weighing in at 362 lbs before the band he didn't even guess I weighed so much. I remember at one point before the band he made some comment that I weighed less than his 240 lbs. I just let him keep that thought. He did eventually find out I weighed more than him but nothing specific. He has a few pounds to lose and I made a joke about him not being able to lose those few pounds before I am at goal. He isn't even trying until I catch up with his weight (he likes to procrastinate unpleasant tasks). Anyway I forgot I had never told him and let it slip over the weekend. I figured if everyone on LBT knew and the rest of my family knew, he might as well too. It was no big deal. Best wishes, Teresa

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
