  1. Hello, I am 38 % Yankee. Maybe that is why as I child I went to the Yankees games all of the time? I only lived about 20 blocks and a bridge away..!!
  2. Great progress Josephine!! Keep up the excellent work!!! You and many others here are a great motivation for a future May bander. Keep up the good work and keep everyone posted.!! Besides shopping are you doing any other excercise? Thanks
  3. Great to have you with the Mayers. Heresdeb!!! We all have the same goals in mind and we will achieve them. I have noticed that the last couple of weeks I have been eating more. Does that seem to be happening to anyone else? So if we get our bands in May we should see some nice results by Labor Day!!! I can't wait to feel comfortable in the Airplance and not all squished up and extremely obese. Kisses=Besos
  4. Mayers, We have now our group going on. I think sometimes this board might have too much information. I have to be strong and stick to the plans. How many of us will be doing a pre band diet? How do I get a ticker ?
  5. Hello all, How many people are getting banded in May 2006? I plan to be banded in Boston.
  6. Thanks ladies and gentlemen. This makes me feel alot better knowning that all is good. One more question. How do you feel when your partner lays on top of you? Do you feel uncomfortable with the port? Can use still get massages?
  7. Thanks everyone for your response but it does not seem to many men on this board? I wonder if this is just too embarrasing for the rest of the real men to answer? HMMMMMM Sex is important part of my life and the more and the better will rock..
  8. Hey, As a future bander and a man I have been worrying about this. I like to be able to have the mobility that I currently have, and the port area is also scary.. Any men out there to tell me how the sex life is going after being banded? I have a big worry of being in the "mix" and the woman pulling the port area!!! ouch!!!!
  9. Hello All...Future bander here.... I am a male and I was wondering if the males feel any discomfort from the port while being intimate? As you know our bodies do alot of motion being sexual and I am seeking knowedge if you have the same power as before? . Does your partner or partners notice the ports location ? Is the sex now better? Ladies has your sex life gotten better? Are banders more sexual now then pre banding? Thanks
  10. Hello, I work in a financial industry office and sit most of the day. I am a man and have to wear suit and tie and belt. Unlike women I can not get away with wearing a long blouse of dress for comfort with an elatistic waist etc , mens clothes are more confining. How long after surgery does one feel comfortable sitting for a prolonged period and wearing suit and tie.
  11. Hello, As many people on this board have to fly to Mexico , I would like to know if you upgrade to first class on the return flight to be comfortable in the seat ? As it is now for me the seatbelts and seats are a tight squeeeeeeeze! Thanks
  12. Hello, Can anyone tell me of a DR. they have used in New York City for fills from thier Mexican surgery? Can you provide the contact number and fees associated? Please let me know as I want to check them out in a couple of weeks. Thanks
  13. :help: Hello, I am considering this doctor from Monterrey mMexico. Can anyone shed soem light on what they know about him and The Bariatric Group office he runs? Thanks for any and all information
