  1. I tried being nice, loving and understanding to him for months a couple years ago. Nothing changed with him. I don't think I can afford to do it on my own. I vented. I'll be ok. One of these days!
  2. I've let it go. Left last night to get some distance. Back tonight. Now what's pissing me off, is he's being cold to me! But I really have let that he told go. But like I said earlier. I'm gonna enjoy the ride...with or without him/his support. I'm good now!
  3. I have been married 20 years, have 2 sons18 and 16 and they ARE supportive. They both think their dad is a jerk for that..
  4. I haven't had surgery yet. It's scheduled for August 23rd. So no pounds coming off yet. But yes, while I'm changing, either his attitude can or his address can!
  5. Im taking off almost 3 weeks.
  6. I have app on my cell phone from its app store.
  7. I have 2 counters on my phone as well. 1 for when I start my PRE-op liquid diet, and 1 for when I leave!!
  8. Thanks all of you for your loving and caring support. It has really helped. This IS about me, for once. And no matter where it takes me or who comes along for the ride, it's MY time, Bd I'm going to enjoy the ride!!
  9. Stacey, if he was caring I would give that a possibility, but his family has never accepted me (22 years) and it just adds fuel to the conversation about how much they dislike me fire! Not to mention I walked out last night because I needed to calm down, and never came home. He's not even called to check on me. So yeah, he doesn't care!
  10. You're awesome skinny pants!!!
  11. He won't go to counseling because theres nothing wrong with him (his words).
  12. Yes, I am happy I have my VST family! Thought maybe I overreacted but that's just the side of me that is used to succumbing to his opinions of me! Love you guys!
  13. His excuse was he forgot. My unanswered questions were...why was I topic of conversation...hope you made sure to tell them your unsupportive ass wasn't helping financially, that I was paying for it...and why would you even tell them since you say it's not gonna work, not gonna help. His response. I forgot, I'm not perfect. My response to that was 'i thought I was the only imperfect one around here' (cause he treats me like everything I do is wrong and never good enough.
  14. SUPER PISSED!!! I told my husband in the beginning of my final decision that I DID NOT want his family to know about my weight loss surgery I'm going to have. I feel like I haven't been accepted at my worst, then they don't deserve me at my best. Anyway...we were just talking about the subject again, and I reiterated to him I DID NOT WANT THEM TO KNOW. IT'S NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS AND NOT HIS PLACE TO TELL THEM! He already did...two weeks ago! M A DDD!!
  15. Woohoo to all of us! Our dates can't come soon enough!!
  16. Sooo gonna try this...
  17. I just realized IMO means 'in my opinion'
  18. I haven't had surgery yet either. I, as well, got the unjury chicken broth. I figure 30% sodium isn't sooo bad when the "sweeter" proteins will hardly contain ANY. I wanted one salty "normal" tasting food to offset the sweet. I tried one and it was really good. Did not have that protein taste at all! I also got the isopure 50g protein packets not the greatest taste, but figure if i sip on it throughout the day, with my water, etc., then thats 70g protein in 2 products. Also got unjury's non flavored to put into homemade liquid/full liquids. Anyway, that's my uninformed, unsurgical opinion!
  19. If weight loss were available in such a form, the entire world would be a normal BMI!
  20. Sammy, I was looking and you just had it done 4 days ago? Give it some time before being so negative. Yes, I'm still waiting to be sleeved, but so many people say (months later) its the best thing they have ever done and should have done it sooner! I'm so ready for this, that I'm even ok if I don't make it! I don't want to be like this anymore!
  21. Hummus is high in dietary fiber!!
  22. For me? I had about four I was checking out. After looking at his credentials and reading others who had been to him and were extremely satisfied and speaking with him. There has been a lot of bad mouthing him by previous coordinators and people who knew the coordinators. But that's not who's doing the surgery...the doctor is! I've had information sent to me about hospitals he won't/can't work in and one of them he won't work in because he was seeing high infection rates, so HE refused to go to that hospital. Another hospital won't let him..because since he changed where he does the procedure, they aren't making money from him so they are angry. I have been you tubing people who went to him too. Even the lady I happened to literally run into in person who has been a member of this forum for a couple years said she's never heard or read anyone disappointed with him. So I'm very comfortable. The price does help!
