Satisfied, while DH isn't.
You have done unbelievably well. I am sure he has his reasons for acting like he does, but I feel like you have accomplished something amazing. Just talk to him. Perhaps he is just concerned for YOUR happiness, though I believe he is going about it the wrong way. Tell him how you feel, tell him what you need. Whatever happens, just know that you have done very well and be proud of yourself.

Low Carb Recipies
I always hated califlower, but on the mushy stage I decided if I eat one more potatoe I would go crazy, so I made the califlower mash. I put cream cheese, salt, mozerella, and a little cream in it and mashed mashed mashed. It was actually really great. You can't taste vegtable you only tast the cheese with the texture of mashed potatoes.:biggrin:

Fear nagging my heart
I have this absolute conviction that my band is slipping. I don't have any real pain just a twinge of something I can't identify down there sometimes. I haven't had a fill yet, and I do have some restriction, but I feel like it has slipped. I think that it is just a fear I have because I am selfpay and if it slips I can't afford to fix it. I can't get it out of my head, "its slipping, it's slipping, It's not going to work, Everyone knows I have surgery, it's slipping"

Switching Addictions
Meth is a life ruiner. It ruins your health, your teeth, your life. I would rather be fat. I hate drugs. I have lost so many people to them.

I need support
If you keep up with the pace you are going. In 5 more months you will lose another 35 lbs. At a "snails pace" You would have lost 70 lbs in 10 months. That is amazing! And with your band you will be able to keep the weight off much easier than without the surgery. You are doing great. Don't lose the faith in yourself. We are here for you.

Sex Life
You were talking about if guys hit on you after you lose weight--My girlfriend had gastric bypass almost 10 yrs ago and she said she actually had anger issues and had to see a therapist because of how diffrently she was treated after the surgery. All these people talked to her and hit on her that never even glanced at her before. Now I have special considerations when it is two woman togethor, I am especially looking forward to losing the weight for certain things to work a little better. I hope my sex drive is not affected.
