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.

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!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
