husband recovering from surgery - vent

So my husband got his wisdom teeth removed 11 days ago and since then has been checked out and in recovery mode. It has taken him longer to bounce back from having the teeth pulled than it did for me to recover from delivering our 1 month old baby (which was only 4 weeks ago). He keeps referring to it as his "surgery" and has been laying on the couch recovering while I'm up with the baby. He is still only eating soft food. The dentist cleared him to eat regular food but he thinks soft foods will help him recover. In the last 24 hours he ate an entire gallon of ice cream by himself.... we both are trying to lose weight and I had gestational diabetes so im trying to stay away from sugar especially and he keeps going out and buying more which has fully derailed him from losing any weight. Anyway please send your prayers that my husband will recover from his surgery... 😊
