Update on Gino's 1st week f/u (Edited)
You know you are right no one really understand what we go through unless you go through it yourself. He tells me everyday wow Cira now I understand what you was going through. He chugged down some water instead of sipping and was in a lot of pain in his pouch. i told him didn't I tell you to sip ealrier? LOL He was like yeah but I forgot... and I said well your pouch will definitely remind you then! LOL You should have heard him moaning and saying out loud ahhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh... lol
I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

How funny. It is very hard to change your habits. And even though they sympathize with you when you are not feeling so good for one reason or another, no he can totally understand. Hopefully he won't have to go through this too many times before he remembers to sip!!!

When we believe, all things are possible!
Gino looks HAPPY (for sure!) and more svelte already! Compare the top picture to his post op. See how much slimmer he looks down his sides - no bulge!
It's really not fair how men lose so much better than us.

Keep up the good work and your manly man will soon be a stud.

Take care.
Lots of hugs to you both.

I have noticed that he has been smiling more like he used to before. He was always know by the guy with the huge smile. lol It makes my heart swell to see him feeling so much better so soon after surgery.
You are right it is not fair how men lose weight so much quicker than we do.
Thanks for the hugs we really appreciate them!
Hugs right back at ya!
