Why do women have anal sex?
You know, I am not sure which side of the bed is his or hers. He is a very macho guy and I seriously doubt it was used on him. I would actually call him homophobic. We are really good friends and when I first got together with my bf, she suggested some toys I should consider purchasing. She brought out her container of toys and showed me different vibes and what not. I have house sat at her house before too and I have slept in their bed. That toy container is right next to the bed. It's like a big kettle with no lid not a toy box. I've never seen a strap on in there, and I somehow I don't think she would hide it when she knows i am house sitting if she doesn't bother to hide the container. She usually shows me whatever she gets when she gets something new and wants to show it off. She has those parties where people can purchase those toys too.

So what's with all the gas
You know, sometimes we can't smell our own gas. I have passed some and I couldn't smell a thing and everyone around me was yelling "who farted?!" Of course, I denied it, but I think they are silent but deadly at times. Sometimes they are even far from silent. I think the beano helps but it does not get rid of it completely. The phrase There will be no more gas is a lie. I will look into ginger tea as well.

So what's with all the gas
I am 2 years post op and the gas has not gotten better. I have now started taking 2 beanos with every meal. I think it's better but it's not gone. Don't eat anything with that sugar alcohol in it or it's usually listed on the label as malitol. That stuff will give you enough gas to float away. Does the ginger snaps just help with the smell but not stop the gas?

Why do women have anal sex?
From what I have read, since the G spot is behind the pubic bone, from the right angle, it can be reached this way. It doesn't make any sense to me at all, how you can orgasm this way, but enough people have said they not only can, but have had fabulous orgasms that way. I've read this on other message boards and some women will say the orgasms are much better this way. It's very confusing to me.

Help! Stuck capsule!!
Yeah, the doctor can remove it with a scope. We had a girl who swallowed gum once and had to have it removed that way.

Why do women have anal sex?
Thanks. I would sure like to know how it's possible to have an orgasm that way. It makes no sense to me. It's not that I would want to try to have an orgasm that way, but the whole thing just mystifies me.

Brandy, you get the cold icky weather there in the winter. In the summer, I always wish I lived in Eugene. It's in the 60's here in the summer too. I have to go away if I want warm weather, like to Eugene. I am going to have to do a search on Patty Green.

I have heard that our bodies treat sf just as if it were sugar. They may have less calories, but it keeps the sugar cravings going. I guess our brain just thinks "sweet" even if it's sugar free and less calories.

Why do women have anal sex?
Gloucester, Would you mind explaining to the rest of us how this is possible. I never knew there was a way to have an orgasm this way. I thought the G spot was right behind the pubic bone and I don't see how that can be reached from behind. Also, I didn't think there were any erogenous zones back there. I am not being critical, but I want to understand how this could be pleasurable.

I am really curious to hear if the coke helps. I take papaya tablets and they don't dissolve what is stuck like they are supposed to, but they do make whatever is stuck come right up

I would think that being happy with what size clothes you wear would help determine the goal weight. I don't know for sure how much muscle weight I have, but I am very happy in a size 10. No it's not a 6, where I would be ecstatic, but at 56 years old and not many wrinkles, a size 10 is very doable for me. I am afraid if I lost any more weight, I would have hanging skin.

Does Your Band Stop Your Hunger
I probably had been throwing up in my sleep for at least 3 months. The first time I called my dr. the nurse gave me nexium samples. I knew they would not help. It was not heartburn. It was food that I had eaten hours before. It was happening at least twice a week, sometimes 4-5 times a week. I practically had to scream at the office "Give me a test! This is not normal!" I saw my dr. for less than a second and told him what was going on and he said "you need an esphagram." Finally. Those office girls just kept putting me off and not letting me get into the dr. I have not had any trouble since, although I did get stuck on shrimp tonight. I was talking and eating and forgetting I had a band. so it is still working. that was good to know. I found a do-able snack for the evenings. sf Jello. not the little cups. I made a big bowl of it. I think I can have as much of that as I want. It wasn't bad with a little ff cool whip. I am going to try to give up chocolate. That's what I crave and maybe I can get my body to forget what it tastes like. no chocolate pudding, no sf fudgsicles, nothing chocolate flavored. I'll see how that goes.

Ice Cream horror
I am not getting you. They say muscle burns fat . how many pounds of muscle does it take to start burning calories?
-
Ice Cream horror
Yeah, there is no doubt about it. Building muscle makes a huge difference. It's very satisfying to find muscle where there was once none. Plus I think I just read today that every pound of muscle burns 50 calories. I could be wrong on the pounds of muscle. All I know is that I love that my thighs no longer stick out farther than my hips. That is from weight training. All my life, even when I weighed 110, I had thunder thighs that stuck out farther than my hips.

So far, we have one person who said it might be fun. I am waiting to see if anyone else feels that way. I have turned this into a survey. Please vote. Let me know if we need another catagory

I thought white rice was a simple carb. I thought only brown rice was considered a complex carb. I do know the difference between complex carbs and simple. I follow the glycemic index . Most junk food is simple carbs which makes me crave more junk food. You can disagree with anyone you choose to. Just because a moderator says something, does not mean everyone has to agree to it. We are only supposed to talk to the other moderators if someone starts name calling, etc. You were very polite.

Ah, but I did have signs. I was puking in my sleep. I knew that could just not be normal. Now I have to try to maintain with barely any restriction. it's hard. they won't give me another fill. They said I have esphageal motility issues, whatever that means.

It's stuck and making me sick
That stuff is way too harsh. That is what they give you before a colonoscopy. If you really want a laxative, there are some that are more gentle.The one called Corectol they call the "women's gentle laxative" I think an enema is about the easiest thing to get quick relief.

Why do women have anal sex?
That's what I would think too. That's why I said I can't even imagine why women would do that. There is something to be said about "pleasing your man" but as far as I am concerned, he better use his hand if he wants it that tight. I was really surprised to read that some women can have G spot orgasms that way.

I did some more reading on it because the whole issue was so confusing for me. Apparently, the G spot can be reached this way. On another site, I read that women have had fabulous orgasms this way. I never knew that was possible!

Why do women have anal sex?
Okay, so I was babysitting for a neighbor of mine. She called to see how the kids were doing. They were sleeping but I asked her if she had anything for a stuffed up nose. I was thinking she might have some sort of decongestant but I didn't see any in the medicine cabinet. She told me next to her bed, on the night stand, there was a bottle of nose spray and I could use that. ( I washed the tip of the bottle with alcohol) Also on the night stand, was a tube of lube that said it was for anal sex. It got me wondering why women do this. I could see why a guy would want to do it. I would suppose it's tighter and feels good for him. But does it feel good for her? I can't see it feeling any different than being horribly constipated. I wish I had never seen that tube of lube!

You may have to break down and do an enema, if you're blocked up. They have those individual ones in the Walmart brand that work very well. After that, keep taking a stool softner and concentrate on eating more fiber. Fiber One has some good cereals that have tons of fiber in them. the only problem with the Fiber one cereals is that I have to take beano with them.
