CT Fats

kettleball kicks butt!

I love this! I so have to replace eating as a hobby.

Can guys have an inner diva...

Thanks a lot dude! You got me over here about to cry, big, huge manly tears of course. I know what you mean about being the embarrasing fat dad. Thats why im trying to do this now before my boy gets older. That is one helluva NSV, Congrats!

Keep rolling along!! Congrats

Big smile says it all! Congrats

Thank you all for the kind words and encouragement! I think I will aim High and hope my genetics and age cooperate.

Hello guys Please do not take this question as me being mean, but I have to ask. When i visit my doctor or go to my support meetings, I see a lot of people who have had the sleeve that are excited about their progress and that is great, but a lot of them are what would still be considered chunky by society. I realize that a lot of these people needed to lose 100 sometimes 200 pounds but are they finished? I know they have improved and don't need meds or bipaps to sleep and that is great. They have extended their lives by a great deal, but strictly aesthically speaking is this as good as some people get? Left with a belly or pounch but healthy? I guess im just wondering what to expect for myself though I know everyone is different my vanity keeps me picturing myself as 180lb head turner getting tons of attention from the ladies. I see some people on here who look like totaly different people (Lilmissdiva and Tiffykins come to mind) and I wonder why some people have those kind of results that transform their looks and other people just lose enough to extend their lives?

Your arms look perfectly fine. And you are glowing congrats on the brat!

I have the Hamilton Beach blender as well and it is amazing.

LOL. Congrats. All these years I've been being a gentleman, gotta start cat-calling at the ladies now. JK

I love these "my kids said topics", There should be a section for just good kid quotes. Even the mean ones are entertaining. My 3 year old son told me I couldn't ride in the backseat with him, because I might break the car. LOL. I guess after my sleeve and he gets a little older I can get revenge on the basketball court.

Speaking for the men on this board, YOU LOOK GREAT! Keep it up and wish you the best.

The smile in the after shot says it all. Congrats bro!!

WOW! Thats like two different people! It it wasn't for the huge smile, I wouldn't recognize you. Congrats!!!

Yeah, I hate those charts! And the language is horrible MORBIDLY obese, SUPER obese? What is that like a fat superhero? Like you said you are happy and thats what matters!! If you don't mind me saying, I don't think you need 50 more lbs at all. You look slim and curvy, which we guys love. Keep doing what youre doing.

Wow! Those BMI charts are crap! Looking at your pics, you look no where near Overweight. You are a hottie.

" I wore a Saloon Girl Bustiere and fishnet stocking with high heels." I MUST HAVE PICS!! CONGRATS TO YOU.

I use the blu cig. It makes me look cool

Love horses! Though I havent ridden since I was a boy visiting my grandparents in Georgia. Ive always wanted to ride a hot blood, just totaly fly through a field at top speed!

I would agree that the thread has taken on a two part question vine. It seems it's both the emotional attraction and the physical attraction are two distinct entitys. Its intresting to see so many women who are SO commited to their spouse through better or worse. I would love to hear from some guys on the subject, us being more superficial and all . But keep them coming ladies, lots of insight!

Sleeve 4 me You sound like you really love your hubby, but are you still gaga for his body now?

Myrori Thanks for being so honest. I dont think that it makes you a B that you feel this way. By your description it seem like it would be hard to cope for anyone. And seeing someone who has no desire to help themselves is even more stressful.

Glad you all are enjoying the topic. All of your insights have been valuable. It's good to know that personality seems to reign supreme and the looks seem to come in second. Keep them coming!

Thanks for the honest reply. You said your new paramour has bad eating habits. If the day comes when he is no longer active and packs on the pounds do you still see yourself being attracted to him physically not emotionally?
