    I have one of those husbands that can eat anything and not gain a pound! Errrrr! Then again he is an ironworker so he burns an amazing amount of calories a day. I used to tell him I'm gonna become an ironworker so I can eat like him. When I told him about the surgery he was very concerned about how drastic it seemed to him. He came to a class and read through the booklet they gave me. He made me laugh the day he told me "I guess this surgery is a better option than you becoming an ironworker" He has been very supportive. He has actually tried many healthy recipes I have made and liked some. I wont force him to eat healthy but I just say would you like to try it or should I make you a burger(his go to food). When I make family meals I just tweek it a little to make it a bit healthier. In the long run its better for everyone. We also need to remember as we change the people around us also change. Keep an open dialog and be understanding of each other.
