Funny WL support story



Recommended Posts

I love watching shows like My 600 lbs Life since I started on my journey toward surgery. My husband does not watch these shows but he is typically in the room when I am watching.

He has been supportive of me. He cooks healthy, he makes healthy shopping lists, he looks for healthy recipes and gently and sweetly refuses when I want to cheat. After a recent office visit with my surgeon I thanked him for being so supportive. He replied with "Yeah! I do not want to be like those dead beats on My 600 lbs Life! I have to be a good and supportive husband! You can do this!".

...apparently he listens to the show while I watch.

Do you have any funny stories?

I clench my fists and want to pound Dr Now to a pulp. Told Tomkitten , " He' s an Old Man, that would not be very nice!" , pulled up his bio, He's only a little over a year younger than me! Does this make it a Fairer Fight? I would tell him to walk a few miles in my moccasins if they weren't so worn down! I think he is abrasive , snide and he would be my surgeon only on pain of Death, and Praise God, I have lost enough he never will be! I'm sure he would say 120+ pounds in 9 months was TOO SLOW, well guess what" Baby-cakes" it works for ME!

I'm glad your husband listened. I've never seen that show. My hubby has been super supportive.

And I think your Grady Tomcat is a treasure, you had just better keep him, they don't often make models that fine!👪

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
