Just beware the dreaded munches I try to partake prior to my bike rides and workouts s it did help with the overall shitty feeling during recovery and it is a better reward than food for a goal met.good luck . I'm down 167lbs and my waist went from 54to 34 enjoy just don't let old habits creep back

Thanks, man. Day three is fine. Home and resting. Abdominal wall feels like crap and I'm sore, but I'll live. Able to sleep, keep down my 1oz-at-a-time liquids, walk around (once I stand up ), etc. Not feeling fantastic, but feeling better than I expected to be. It's all good so far.

My husband had an emotional affair in September. He met a girl at a bar, became emotionally involved and kissed her. He said he wanted a divorce and that he did not love me anymore. He left for the weekend. We talked on the phone a lot that weekend and he wanted to come home. I told him I needed to think on it. I cried like I have never cried in my life. One minute I was ready for a divorce. The next minute I couldn't breathe without him. I finally decided that 12 years was too much to throw away over a kiss. I told him that an emotional affair hurt because that is giving a piece of himself to someone that belonged to me. He can sleep with a hooker, but you care about someone you kiss. He met me for dinner one night and we talked it over. I didn't want to see a marriage counselor because our marriage is the two of us; not a threesome. Our marriage has NEVER been this strong. We have such a closer bond now and we both don't take each other for granted now.

She definitely is!

I hate when people think that things can't change in a short amount of time... Quite some time ago my husband had an affair, I found out about it... We talked about things, got to the rot of the problem and decided together that we both wanted to work things out... While things were not completely healed in 2 weeks things were much better... While I wish this never happened, I am as funny and "cliche" as it sounds glad it happened... If not now our marriage would be over affair or no affair. And now we are in a really great place I hope everything goes well for you OP... This soon after the affair just be cautious... I hope for your sake you guy end up like me and my husband... I know no matter what he would NEVER cheat on me again because he saw how much it really hurt me and he would never do it again! Good Luck in all that you do!

Well, some semi-legal advice: GET OFF THE INTERNET and do NOT post any more about this. As much as we'd like to help you may let something slip that your hubby can use against you and jeopardize your interests. This can be a major life, health, legal and financial issue and you are not going to get any real help on the internet.
Get some REAL help next, seek advice form councilors or a help group. Talk this out with HIM, NOT us. If things escalate then secure the services of a good lawyer and decide what to do.
Above all PROTECT YOUR INTERESTS - NO ONE else is going to, so YOU have to.
We all wish you the best.

After reviewing this topic and reading each post, I do not find JaspersGirl to be in violation of our rules. She has not mentioned the name of the wraps in any of her posts, nor is any type of link, etc. listed in her signature. Therefore, she is in compliance with the rules of our forum.
If you have any questions regarding this decision, please feel free to pm me. From this point forward, I request that all arguing, bashing, etc. stop. Failure to do so will result in disciplinary action.

Who the neck cares if she sells it. Last I remember this was a free country and even if she is pedaling a product that doesn't work ... we are adults and an make those decisions ourselves DUDE! You're annoying and a bully. I got so annoyed reading this whole conversation. I've been a member for over 3 years now and have NEVER seen this attack and the ADMINS not do a damn thing. I have reported him as well .. this is ridiculous !!!!!

It is also important to remember that things like: ethnicity, stretch marks and weight loss amount can all contribute to skin bouncing back.
For instance, some on here have amazing looking skin on their tummies but they lost about 90 - 100 pounds while others that have 300+ to lose will most likely not have those results.
Also, if you have a wreck of stretch marks (like me) it will be much harder for your skin to go back.

Ha. I'm eating refried Beans with cheese & taco sauce. Right now. I haven't eaten a 1/2 cup yet. But I think I'm going to be able to eat it all.

Well 2 1/2 weeks out eating pureed food tolerating it well I keep thinking I'm hungry though. Easy to get the liquids in and the protien as well. Can't wait to start riding my bike again.
