So, I bought a bunch of Protein shake samples and have been having one a day for Breakfast to see which ones I like. I usually offer/make my dad and hubby taste them just a single sip if they're around.

Today, I was offering a sip of the Cherry Synthrax nectar shake to the hubby and he told me it was nice and then he dropped the following bomb:

Yeah, I can drink those if you get them for our 2 week liquid pre-op diet.

WHAT? "Our" ?????

Then he goes on to elaborate that he plans on doing the liquid pre-op diet with me as he figures he helped me get so fat along the way he can help me get skinny too.

Too cute!

Anyways, I guess I'll have to ask my NUT about him doing it too...

What a cool (and supportive) guy!

That is very sweet. Sounds like he's a keeper!!!

My husband and I did the surgery and I have to say, it is really awesome. I had surgery first and his was 6 months after mine....we are like a two person support group. It's really nice to have someone who really gets its and so cheap to eat out. We spill every meal and still can't finish it.

It's nice to actually hear about good husbands (boyfriends) on here. Seems to be so many complaints about them on here. We (guys) are not all bad,

My dad did the same thing. He drinks his protein drink every morning and told me he was going to be eating like me. I took my mom grocery shopping and showed her how to read labels...we were in Walmart for three hours lol. We share recipes and I showed her how to bake fish which they eat 1-2 a week. My dads lost more weight post-op than I have lol. I think it's awesome!

My daughter and granddaughter who live with us decided they would eat like me and mom who is RNY as a diet. They did real well....one day.

That is super awesome. My husband started losing with me. Drinking shakes as Meal Replacements, cutting back on food amount and what type he eats and he has dropped 20 Lbs and is so motivated now. He says it wasn;t as hard as he thought it was gonna be.

We work out together 2xs a week and has a very active job.

so excited for you

It is such a wonderful thing to have your loved ones be so supportive. My entire family is very supportive. My husband is one of those healthy fit people ( which i hope to be soon) and tells me all he wants is for me to be happy. He says he doesn't care what package I come in because after 25 years of marriage, 4 kids and two grand kids he falls more in love with me everyday.

I'm a month post op and my husband's been like that. He's been so so so so so very supportive. I'm glad you have a good, supportive partner!

My hubby and i have also both had the sleeve. He went first, as his medical issues were more pressing than mine. I got mine done 6 months after his, and he has been such a help to me!

My husband did the same thing and it was probably the most supportive thing anyone has ever done for me. He also lost 25lbs during it! Sounds like your hubs is one of the super great ones!!

It's wonderful that your hubby is so supportive. I don't understand how people do it without the total and complete support of their other half. That will enable you to get through this surgery and recovery all the much easier because of his support.

I am so blessed to have my husband as my rock. He loves me no matter what and I am so thankful and grateful.

That's awesome!

My stepdaughters, who live with us (15&13) drank the evening Protein shake with me, or had a salad with lean protein with me. The other meals Breakfast and lunch at school, they ate normal. I thought it was great they chose to support me by not eating all that stuff in front of me!

Glad to see him being supportive!

Awe! That's so sweet!! What a great support you have!

That is totally awesome!

My hubby and I are both sleeved and it truly is one of the best things we have ever done for ourselves and can't imagine doing it any other way. Thank goodness we didn't have any pre-op diet, just liquids 48 before surg.

Best of luck to you BOTH!!!
