HEY YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY CAN EAT WHATEVER, BUT PICK HEALTHY FOODS. DON'T JUST EAT ANYTHING IN FRONT OF HIM DURING THIS POSTOP STAGE. IF HE SEES THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO EAT HEALTHY HE WILL KNOW YOU ARE ARE HAVING TO PICK AND CHOOSE FOODS TOO.THERE IS A VAREIETY OF HEALTHY FOODS OUT THERE WHICH STILL LETS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY EAT WHATEVER. THIS STAGE WILL PASS WITH YOUR HUSBAND AS HE ADJUSTS TO HIS NEW LIFESTYLE OF EATING. BUT PLEASE DONT EAT IN HIDING, THIS IS NOT A GOOD CHOICE FOR YOU, YOUR HUSBAND, OR YOUR FAMILY. HOPE IT HELPS, HANG IN THERE IT WILL GET BETTER.

He is making me feel guilty because I am eating regular food and he isn't. This was his decision to make and I support him, but the rest of the family didn't have the surgery. How can I deal?? Do the kids and I eat in hiding?? Anyone out there that has the answers, please help. Otherwise, this is going to be a very long adjustment period.
