    2-Liter got a reaction from DevonnaMR in Sex after sleeve   
    From a guys Perspective
    If a guy makes advances toward you then obviously you have Characteristics that he likes. Don't let your self-conscious thoughts stop you from being intimate. I have found that women that have been Bigger put a lot more effort into pleasing their partner than women that don't have to work as hard to attract a man. Honestly one of the few turn offs for me in the Bedroom is a woman that wont let her self go and enjoy the moment and instead is constantly wondering if i find her attractive. We all have body issues whenever I was in the Marines at 162lbs I still thought I was fat. I am going to give you the Ultimate thing to remember "Fake It Till You Make It" well don't Fake everything lol!!!

    Now sitting at 18 months out I realize that for my body Carbs are my Mortal Enemy. The Sleeve will trick you into thinking you got this and just a little cheating is fine but I can promise Sugar is more Addicting than Crack (Well not that I have tried Crack LOL). I hit a little Speed Bump in my Weightloss but I'm Back on the Wagon and setting a new set of Goals. I have walked to many miles to GO BACK!!! I want to encourage everyone considering the Surgery or that has recently had it done that you have made the first step of a Great Journey now just stick to the Path and keep picking yourself up when you Fall Off!!!
  3. Congrats!
    2-Liter got a reaction from ProudGrammy in Male Plastics   
    I am only 8 weeks+ Post-Op but I am researching International Plastic Surgeons (Mexico & Dominican Republic) and monitoring their Forums for Before and Afters. I don't know the percentage of males having PS but from doing searches it seems to be pretty low. I will be getting a Fleur-de-lis Abdominoplasty (Inverted T Tummy Tuck) with Lipo and Mons Pubis Lipo
    Brazilian Butt Lift using the Fat that was Lipoed
    I think my arms will be fine and I would do inner thigh but the results are very marginal 80% of the time. I plan on being very open about my whole Journey from the sleeve all the way through Plastic and beyond.

    Stalls come and go you will see the scale drop again soon. Our Biggest enemy is Defeat because that's when we go back to old Habits that caused us needing the Surgery in the first place. Stick to your Plan and give your body a little time to catch up.

    As the fat melts it seems to release emotions. Do tiny tasks that you know you can complete to build back your confidence. We have all been there and somehow made it through. Pick at least one thing you are doing right and focus on that. Two months from now you will look back and appreciate how far you have come.
    Good Luck

    2-Liter got a reaction from Orchids&Dragons in How Long Post-op Until You Were Able to Eat Carbs & Fried Foods Again?   
    The Sleeve only gives you a short window to change your eating habits before regain is a possibility. At Six months out I thought I had it mastered and could introduce small amounts of Carbs and Sugar back into my diet but Once a month turns into once a day and then you find your self on the road to where you started. I have faith in you and Hope you realize that no food tastes as good as being Healthy. This is just my Personal experience but it is one that I see posted on this forum day after day. I fight regain daily and have come to realize that I have to keep choosing Healthy over that warm fuzzy lethargic feeling that comes after I have ate something that I know I shouldn't.

    2-Liter got a reaction from Jade5 in How Long Post-op Until You Were Able to Eat Carbs & Fried Foods Again?   
    Personal Experience was about 8 weeks out before I could eat foods with much texture partly from fear of something causing a abscess in the incision lining the other it felt uncomfortable.
    I wanted to look at this question from a different perspective So I went and looked at all three recipes and I believe that if you got inventive you could substitute a few ingredients and still fit these items in your diet occasionally. Using ingredients like Almond or Coconut Flour. I know we all sound overprotective but that comes from finding out firsthand that the Lays got it correct " You can't have just one!!!"
