Non-supportive wives?

I read many, many threads about women who are sleeving and have to deal with jerk, non-supportive, insecure, namby-pamby, crybaby husbands.

I am just curious.......... any of you men have non-supportive wives?

There was a thread about that very topic a couple of days ago..

I will try to remember the name and let you know.

Oops mans room. . . Quietly walking away now :)

I'll write you a special permission slip...To all men whom it may concern, Laura.........and signed Gman.....there ya go. B)

Ya, if I'm being redundant I'd like to know.

Not here. My wife was 110% supportive.

Thanks!! :P

It was called "wife isn't supportive" how much info there I don't know...

You never know. :) We are equally supportive of the LBGT community here. It's all about WLS...

I found and read the thread that our honorary guest, Laura, referred to. It is :http://www.verticals...9;t supportive

It is an excellent thread on the subject. After reading that thread I almost wished I had posed this question in the general area. The women gave such insightful answers. Hey guys, OK if we throw this open to the ladies?

Of course!

That might have been the thread I started a while back. My wife was being a real beech about it in a very passive aggressive way. When I was work hard to get the pre-op weight down, she would actually sit down in front of me (away from our dining room) and eat. She had had RNY about 7 years ago and had put back on almost all of her weight. So I think that had a lot to do with it. Generally she's kinda supportive. She cooks more for our kids than anything, but I have no problem making my own food and I think that pisses her off to a degree. If she makes something that I can't or don't want, I just make my own. I haven't let it get to me, I've pretty much tuned her out. But now that I am 3 months out she seems to be getting on board more. In fact she's started working out and seeing a nutritionist, but that has more to do with her, not really me. So who knows......

Silly boy...this is not possible. Women are perfect :P

I agree with what was said on the other thread...maybe she's feeling insecure & afraid what might happen when your looking & feeling good! I know many years ago when I lost over 100 lbs & my husband started losing too..I became insecure & jealous! I would try & sabotage his weight loss by making his fav meals, etc. It was my problem...not his! Now we are both on this journey again....me sleeved & he trying on his own...but I feel totally different this time & we support each other. Maybe if you assure her how much you love her & talk about all the things you two will soon be able to do TOGETHER....she will get on board. Good luck on your journey!
