Eclectick

Not sure if they test for nicotine, I also smoked for many years but I quit like 2 months ago, still using a vapor e cig..but zero nicotine fluids.
My surgery is also on the 24th, go for blood work and EKG on 11/7
P.S. - I got so mad about something today that I wanted one, I went out in the warehouse to ask the delivery guy for a cig, but he had already left, I guess I was saved.

@@woo woo I agree, it's time to move on....however, I am financially not in a position right now to move out...I have surgery coming up in 24 days which requires my $2,000.00 deductable...but I'm thinking a few months after surgery when I am through the rough spots of post-op....just have to work around my car & motorcycle payments that I aquired after moving in...before I moved in...my other car was paid off, and my first motorcycle was paid off...silly me..traded both in for new...and the payments that come along with it...arggg.
I was reluctant to do this, because he knew eventually I was going to move out..but again..silly me..allowed him to talk me into it. He got a new truck and motorcycle as well.

You guys will get a kick out of this story: I met this guy about 5 years ago, we started off as friends which turned to friends with benefits, while all this was going on..he kept telling me we were just friends....well we did EVERYTHING together including 1.5 yrs later moving in with each other but it only lasted about a year when problems arose with his adult kids (that's another story) but I moved out...we didn't talk to each other for about 6 months I actually was so mad at him for the way things went down, but anyway.. from what I heard, he was miserable after I left but didn't hesitate to have sex with every female he could find, including with the 2 most hated women in my life.
We started talking again, and became "weekend" friends with benefits AGAIN, eventually I was asked to move back in...I hesitated but since I fell so head over heals for him the first time..I couldn't let go. Little did I know, when I moved in..the sex stopped...no kissing, no hugging...nada...so I asked him...um..whats up? He said living together is one thing...he didn't want things to get complicated by having sex since we are just friends. I was like in shock..now that I had given up my apartment to come to this?..I told him, had I known you were going to do this..I wouldn't have moved in...no response from that.
Anyway...I let it go..but we have been living together now a little over 2 years...we do EVERYTHING together, we sleep in the same bed..we go to family outings (both sides) together..he goes to the store and actually thinks of me...he buys me some of my favorite goodies I like....we actually have a friendship that is 100% similar to a marriage, everyone we know...introduces us as boyfriend & girlfriend and he doesn't correct them. .but yet to him..we are just best friends.
He is so supportive of my surgery....and knows that I am so excited about this...being thinner and healthier that I am afraid that when I do lose weight he might start getting closer to me..would I like that? sure since I love him so much..but why wont he admit that we actually have a relationship? Was it my weight preventing him from announcing to everyone he was in a relationship with a fat girl?...is he just a commitment phobe? Or will this be my chance to actually find someone else...who knows.
Kinda weird huh? would love to hear your thoughts on that icky situation!!

Congrats and way to go!! It's a proud moment when you see results like that.
Keep up the good work.
I had surgery on Nov. 24th, 2014 and as of today I have lost about 65 pounds, I guess we are all different in the way our weight distributes but I have gone from a tight 24 to a tight 12....I am proud of the accomplishment as well.
:D :D :D :D

Sorry, no before or after pics yet, but I started at 283, I am 5'6 I wore a tight 24 pants, and down to a loose 18..getting ready to move into 16's I only weigh myself at Publix when I go and the last time which was about 2 weeks ago I was at 241.
My surgery was 11/24
So, about 42 pounds in 2 months.
NEVER have I been able to do something like that in my life!!

I quit smoking about 2 months ago, prerequisite for the surgery...so I started the vapor pipe and my dietician said if it still has nicotine you can't use it. so, I am happy to say I am nicotine free...I still use the vapor pipe..but the liquid is "0" nicotine.
Go Jeannie!!

are you getting enough Water? that would cause the dizzy and lightheaded, also..if you get the feeling of throwing up after you eat...try eating less...sometimes in that phase you are pretty much introducing your stomach to different foods and it may not be able to tolerate as much as they say you should....go slow..take it easy and after a bite or two sit back and see how it sits before eating more.
Hope that helps

I cook steak and pork loin the same way..
Rub meat in "Instant coffee" and a tblsp. of "Soy Sauce" put in zip lock back for an hour, better yet if you do the day before...take out bake at 275 for a couple of hours depending on how well you want it cooked, take out of oven and sear each side for 3 minutes each.
Perfect steak or pork loin and the most juiciest!!
Serve with baby spinach salad with craisins, lil bacon bits, corn bread croutons and balsamic dressing.

I was craving Cornish Hen 1 day after my surgery. I finally made it 4 weeks later with my mother's baste (sugar free orange marmalde, orange juice and a tsp of brown sugar) I could only eat 2/3 bites..but that was it.
Now, (which I am happy about) I used to be a sweet eater especially right before bed..but I don't even crave it anymore (10 weeks post op) If I happen to get a sweet tooth, I put a little bit of 2% milk in a glass with a touch of chocolate Syrup and BAM the craving is gone.

I thought you were going to say you got a Bowel Movement!!

Well, If this was me, I would first sever all ties with current relationship before pursuing another one, with that being said if this man your going to meet for coffee is a good friend that's 1 thing...but I'm from the old school unless his wife knows you and knows that you two are friends and going to have coffee.than I wouldn't meet him. I don't believe nor condone cheating in any sense of the word...and if he leaves his current wife for your....he will leave you for another woman.
And if your in Therapy to help your relationship..why would you even think/dream of having coffee with another man. Fix or end the relationship your in now first.
Once a cheater always a cheater. Wrong...so very Wrong!!
Just my 2 cents of course.

It seems by your numerous posts that your dealing with many issues in your life, your mom, your family, your surgery and your husband..weather you know his wife or not, weather you "assume" this would be good for you to have coffee while he has an open relationship with his wife...is not the kind of therapy my therapist would recommend.
I think perhaps YOU are the one that needs to keep going to therapy and work out your issues that obviously are affecting your judgement in regards to your choices, your boyfriend or someone else's husband. I believe your should stop looking for romance or whatever it is your attempting to do with ANYONE and fix yourself and your own mental barriers, don't get me wrong...I am not saying your crazy or whacked...but you definitely have some issues to deal with before you start gallivanting around town with married men.
I'm just looking in from the outside with the information that has been given...but i still stand by my original post...don't lower yourself into thinking this married man is going to leave his wife for you..just because he makes you feel good for a minute. look at the overall picture....would your boyfriend do this to you?? and how would you feel if he did??
