*Dean*

Aww go on!

Installed the app and just got back from the first session. Anyone else interested? Deano

You're from California. I think you guys invented all the positions.

Yeah, I have a policy if I go out drinking. If I'm not in bed by 10 - I go home!

That's terrible. You trick people to come to a thread to introduce themselves and then talk about your intestines. It's outrageous, Martin. Nice to meet you BTW. My names Dean.

Only if you swallow.

This thread has gone a bit dominetrix all of a sudden! How about hog tying him with zip ties, some gaffa tape and make him your *****!! :P

Mexican, Tex Mex I've always liked it but since being sleeved I like it even more. It's like because I can only eat a small amount, I want something with flavour that will punch me in the face! In other news I've never understood why you guys call coriander cilantro !! :P

I've had a single beer on about 4 occasions. It took me about 2 hours to drink it and really, I could take or leave it. Pre sleeve a could easily knock over a slab (is slab and Aussie-ism? A box of 24 beers) in a night and then move onto whiskey. I don't really have any interest in the empty calories now. Deano

It's up there with a guy faking an orgasm by spitting on someone's back ..........

That's great mate - where's the rest of your face gone!?? Good work.

I don't have sugar in tea or coffee. If I need to used sugar in anything else I use stevia.

I think a holiday is a cool idea. Or something extreme that 'boom-bahs' can't do. Skydiving, bun-gee jump?

I think there's a mistake on your paperwork. Decaf isn't fine! blech!!

:lol:

Not sure what your Dr recommended but I was having a regular coffee from after week 2. Hasn't been a problem.

It's normal for it to be a bit of an emotional roller coaster

I did early on but it was generally when I'd eat a little too fast. I'm more of a tortoise than a hare now and the problem as stopped

No ones screaming my name

I wear a wedding ring, but for me I'd never flash my ring finger. I'd find it awkward. I don't mind the attention, at any weight. I like flirting. I love my wife and have no interest in ruining a great thing. Just flirt, you know you all want to.....

Was that flirting?? LMAO

Like the other posters have said, you just can't tell. Maybe cosmetic surgery might be an option down the track, who knows. It also depends on your circumstances as well. My wife, who is proportionate, has a patch of wrinkly skin on her abdomen from when she was pregnant with our twins. She's not interested in having surgery to fix it. She wears one piece swim suites and nobody really knows. It doesn't bother me, it's a symptom of having two beautiful healthy daughters and I really couldn't find my wife more attractive. I think loose skin from WLS is the same thing, depending on your circumstances. If there is any it is a symptom of all the hard work you've done. And what a great problem to have. It really is a first world problem when you think about it - "I've lost a terrific amount of weight, I'm now ridiculously healthy and look 10 years younger, but I have this loose skin, poor me!!" :) Good luck. Jump one hurdle at a time. The loose skin one is way down the road, if at all. Deano

Most people flirt. Sometimes it's with genuine intent. Often it's messing about. Take it as a compliment. You don't need to reciprocate. As for husbands being more attentive or 'all over you' I wouldn't think that it is necessarily jealousy based. I think it's perfectly normal that if your partner is all of a sudden in better shape, looking after themselves better, dressing better and with new found self confidence that it's going to push all the right buttons. I don't think it means they love you any more or less than before.

That's it Bucky. It won't stop people from being self destructive, if that's what they want to do.

Is it ok to have shards of pistachio brittle week 1??
