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, :D

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!

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.

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!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
