I separated last year 07/07 and this is my second marriage, I finally filed for divorce this year and it was just final last month, its hard especially because I have 3 kids from 2 bad marriages, its scary to think that I can go through this again. My kids keeps me going and focused to do good even though lately I have had no motivation to keep my weight loss going I am so close to goal but just can't get their.

Be careful with the constipation I have had it often since I have my band and I can go 3 to 4 days without going then I use laxitives then I go then okay for a while and back to the same thing, last week I went all week with a pain on my left side that was on and off then Saturday it got worse, Sunday I was in pain so off I go to the ER, well they told I had Diverticulitis and it was most likely caused for the constant constipation. So now I have to be on a high fiber diet and really watch out about getting constipated. It was really painfull so I want to do what ever it takes to avoid that pain again.

Wow thanks for the information its really scary when you read the details. How do you feel since you were diagnosed??

I don't think it ever goes away because I am always freezing and I do have a heater under my desk but when I walk away I feel worse, I am thin and cold rather than fat and hot.

What is COPD??? I am a 2-3 cigs a day smoker.

I am almost 4 years out next month and that's one of the side effects I have since I've lost weight I am always freezing, my hands and feet are always really cold and I am the only one complaining every where I go that its cold. The only time I don't complain is if I drink alcaholic drinks then I tend to warm up a bit but other than that I am always freezing and I hate it.

It will be 4 years of being banded for me 01/07 and I have been stable and have maintained my weight pretty much without really dieting but I still havent reached my goal, I went for a fill in October and the doctor tolded me I had a dialated pouch from drinking and eating so he gave me an small unfill instead of a fill and I am suppose to return this month but I think I am going to return next month with I am ready to continue my journey to reach my goal.

Thats the same thing I have been dealing with lately wanting to experiment. lol

Wow that sounds interesting please share!!!

I work in Fullerton and I have been banded for a while so if anyone is interested in chating or just for motivation you can send me a message anytime.

What is the difference in a g spot orgasam and a clit orgasm?? Which feels better or is their a difference in the way they both feel???

This is a great thread!! Thanks for offering your help!!

I think maybe you did overreact but I can't speak for you because porno to me is not a problem, I don't mind my boyfriend enjoying it whether I like it or not. I guess I rather let him see around me than do it behind my back then I would feel like he is hiding something.

I got my band in January 2005 and so far so good. My last fill was 12/07 so tomorrow I am going to get my band checked under fluro and see if I can get a small adjustment.

Wow shasha sorry to hear about your surgery, but you it does make sense to start looking for a doctor soon so when you are ready for a fill you can get it. What kind of complications would require open surgery??? I don't think this happens to alot of people does it??

Where did you have your surgery and why did it required that many stiches??

I apploud you for you great confidence that what I think I lack.

I can agree on my sex drive going way up but I am at my final stage in my weight loss, I am at 152 and I have already had cosmetic surgery but I am still where I can't walk around naked because I feel unconfortable, I also would love to were sexy cloths but I can't for some reason. I feel like my legs look ugly and my upper thighs are loose, my boyfriend tells me its all mental and that I have a great body to show it but I just can't.

That is so funny how was everyone when you had this experience???? To me all this would'nt of come to me when I was younger because I was to young and I didn't like my body but now its been floating around in my head for a while but at the same time its scary for me to actually do it.

If people choose to meet here regarding the band or any other topic unless they are not harming you or offending you is should stay out of the thread if its not you cup of tea. Funny you don't like this subject but yet have time to come in read the post and respond.

Thanks for the tips, I don't think I will be doing the swapping but a threesome sounds interesting, it takes a lot to actually do it so I am just soaking in information and learning to be cautious. Thank you!

What kind of rules do you set, what are the things that should be okay to do and the ones are not okay???

I can't even imagine what you can do with so much time!!! Tips are welcomed????

Thanks for the information I am sure it will be very helpful.

I live in Lakewood.
