I have the sweetest husband

I feel like I'm the luckiest woman in the world  My husband has been so supportive throughout this whole process and has stood by me and held my hand every step of the way.  He knows I've been struggling lately because my body seems to want to adopt a crazy 12 day cycle...I lose for 12 days and then I stall for 12 days...then I lose again...then stall again.  I'm just about 3 months out and I've been right on this strange 12 day cycle since surgery.  And I get so frustrated when I'm on the 12 day stall part of the cycle (I just broke one on Thursday, thank goodness!)  

Anyways, he's surprised me several times by saying (without any prompting from me)..."I can see the weight loss in your face".  But today he totally made my day.  I was standing there talking to him about our Thanksgiving weekend plans and out of nowhere he says...."Wow, I can see your body shrinking right before my eyes".   He went on to say that he's seen in in my face for a couple of months...but today he could totally see it in my body. I'm smiling from ear to ear!   He's so cute because right after he blurted that out he apologized.  I told him, never apologize for telling me you can see me shrinking!    I just had to share my happiness.  

You are the 2nd luckiest Having a supportive husband is the best. I was almost 100lbs smaller when we fell in love and 70lbs heavier when we got married. He tells me I am beautiful no matter what. I am like one week on liquid diet and he says he notices a difference and said I will shrink. He also said I need to lose 20lbs so I will eat healthier too. Doesn't get better. You married one of the good ones, how blessed we are!

We are both lucky women!  Have a supported SO makes all the difference.  I don't think I could have done this without him.  The weird thing is, it took me 5 years to get up the courage to tell him I wanted to have bariatric surgery.   My regret is not saying something sooner.  He was immediately supportive and said he'd thought about bringing it up to me many times, but didn't want to hurt my feelings. 

There are a lot of us lucky ladies here!  Isn't having a supportive husband the best???!!!  I have one too, and I don't think I'd want to go through this without him!  Let's all remember to tell our guys what we are saying here!  They need to know we appreciate them!

I agree!  

CONGRATS!!! I share your happiness and can soooooooo relate to how you feel... I too have the most awesome husband in the whole wide world and his support before, after, during and now has been unconditional as is his love.. I am sooooooooooo happy for you!!!!

Thank you!  And the thing that was so amazing was that he doesn't say things like that.  He's pretty oblivious most of the time, LOL.  For example, if I get a hair cut I have to tell him, and then he really says, "Really?  It doesn't look like they did anything".  So for him to just blurt out with no reason that he could see my body getting smaller....well it really meant a lot!  

It really means the most when they do things like that out of character, just blurting things out like that :) It seems there are a lot of lucky women out there. :) My fiance` loved me at my heaviest. Yesterday he told me "no matter what size you are, I will love you, I just want you happy and healthy"  :) he is not one to simple say things like that either. I looked at him like he lost his mind. LOL then I think I teared up :)

It sounds like you've found a keeper too!

I have one of these husbands, also. I don't think I could have made it thru all of my band surgeries, now this revision. It is so great to hear that there are so many terrific men out there supporting their women.
