    I don't understand why it is relevant. It wouldn't matter to me, but then again I am biased. Generally speaking though I would see at a plus. It means you've taken control to make a lifestyle change to be healthier. That's a good thing in my book.

    TJ, most of the guys I hang out with are actually envious and/or very supportive, but they aren't the most masculine fellas either..lol Most of my friends are sci-fi comic book geeks such as myself. The only callouses I ever get on my hands are from playing guitar...lol!
    I actually think it takes a much stronger man to be able to make a lifestyle change that you and I have chosen...So next time challenge them to drink liquids for 5 days, survive being stabbed 5 -6 times, and then control your eating the way we have to. Now THAT is a MANLY MAN! *high five*

    Well I guess that depends on a few things. How old is your husband? Has he always been this way? Perhaps he suffers from low testosterone or just has a low sex drive. It's rare for young men, but possible. Does her work a physically or mentally demanding job. I speak from experience when I say that sex drive can fluctuate based on work stress. My previous job was so stressful I never initiated sex...I was too tense and worried. Now that I have my current job and been here almost 10 years...I have a very high sex drive and its getting even higher as I lose weight. IS your husband overweight? That can also be a factor. I know its hard not to take it personally, but before you do I would look into these factors. I'm sure there are other things I'm not thinking of, but hopefully some one else can chime in. Feel free to ask me any questions. I'll be glad to help out.

    It's about passion. Don't over think it. As Bruce Lee said, "It's like a finger pointing away to the moon. Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all of that heavenly glory.".

    xsentrick got a reaction from Holly Dolly in A fresh start for me.   
    I've been away from the site for a few months. After my mom passed away back in October, I found myself returning to food for emotional comfort. I miss her everyday, but after 4 months of no weightloss, I've decided I need to get over it and kick things into high gear. I called my Dr.'s office because I had not seen him in like 3 months. Every appointment I had kept getting canceled and rescheduled another month and half out, so I have not been getting regular fills. Up until 4 weeks ago. I called the clinic and asked if they could see me and give me a fill. The doc there said I should have already been to the halfway point of my band being filled and was adament that she was going to get me caught up and back on track. She gave me a fill and said come back in two weeks. I was feeling slight restriction again...yay! 2 weeks later I went back and she gave me another fill...this time I felt a lot of restriction and even had a hard time with some foods, but it's a good thing! I haven't weighed myself during this time..so I'm hoping there is weight loss...I can tell there is, just not sure how much. So I have another appointment this Wednesday with the same clinic and the doc will let me know how it goes....I finally feel like I am back on track and hope to get some serious weightloss logged into my journal. Thanks for your attention and I hope everyone is doing well.
