I know exactly what you mean. I too have a husband who has never had and will never have a weight problem. He can eat anything that he wants and never get fat. When I first told him that I was considering this surgery he told me "your trying to take the easy way out!" Well you know what? I am six days post op and this is not the easy way out. He has come around in this short time. Helping me to get out of bed and dealing with my pain. He also can now see how much I struggle with the liquid diet and how hard it is for me. Don't worry your husband will see too. This is not a walk in the park. It is a life changing decision and very difficult. The "head hunger" is the worst. When your family is eating a regular delicious meal and you have broth. Omg. I can't even sit at the dinner table with them right now because it is soooo hard. Each day it gets easier and I am looking forward to the pureed diet real soon.

any suggestions for the pureed diet? I am heading into that phase this Friday and am unsure of what to eat? Any help?

how long did it take you for the gas and shoulder pain to go away? I am almost six days post op and the gas and shoulder pain is just awful.
