I'd like to hear from WLS couples about their experiences

I've been on the answering side of the Q&A for months now. But this is my first question. I had my WLS last July - an open RNY - and I have done very well. I was down 152 pounds at my last weigh-in on 2/8/2003. My wife has just gotten approved for her lap RNY which will be on 5/6/2003. <p> I know that there are couples out there in AMOS-land where both spouses have had WLS - the Hallers and the Currans come to mind immediately but I know that there must be others. What were your experiences in dealing with your spouse both pre- and post-op? Any caveats? How did you help your spouse to avoid the obvious comparions to your experience? I know the old adages "everyone is different" and "your mileage may vary" but if the first spouse was a great success after their WLS and the second spouse was less so (or even more so) - how did you deal with that? Thanks...JR
