Hi all,
My wife is having her Gastric Sleeve op on 17th September ( a little over 3 weeks) so I thought I would say hello.
I am trying to build a support network to help me help my wife through her journey :-)

Hi there! Nice people on here. As for supporting your wife, just know it can be a little tough at first. I was super sore and weak for about three weeks following my surgery. I am an insulin dependant diabetic but I healed pretty quick. Hope your wife heals rapidly as well and welcome!

Hello Gerry, its so wonderful that you want to help your wife like this. Bariatric Pal is a great place to come and discuss anything, from the serious to the fun and silly. Relax, kick off your shoes and chat!

p.s There is a UK group here too, which you may find useful

My hubby was my strongest supporter through my own weight loss journey. He was just great -- never "instructed," but always "supported."
Told me I looked great all the time. Told me how proud he was of me. That was worth so much to me!

A supportive mate is a gift from God. Come here any time. Some of us are up at night, thinkin' when we ought to be sleepin'. Please give your wife a hug from a Scottish lassie in Chicago. (Descended from that murderin' horse thief Sir Godfrey McCulloch - I have spent a lifetime trying to undo his bad Karma on the family).
You will find a lot of support here on the forum.

people on this board will give help/info/suggestions/experience and much SUPPORT
you probably will see other posts with similar questions!!!
at the end of the day
ALWAYS/ONLY listen to your surgeon or nutritionist (we say NUT for short)
they are the ones in the official/medical field know
good luck to wifey september 17th with her surgery (sleeve, gastric bypass, lapband???)
wonderful to have someone that "has your back"
You are aces being "there" for wifey before and after surgery
You win the award for "husband of the day/year"
it is refreshing seeing a supportive/helpful husband
(not forgetting the many OP that have help/support from spouse/family/friend)

Welcome!
How fantastic of you to be so supportive of your wife. It will make for a much easier transition to a healthy lifestyle.
I had RNY but can certainly answer questions as well. There are many many supportive people on this site.
Good luck and feel free to reach out.
