  1. I only stopped for a month after my surgery and drink about 4 nights a week we play darts and ping pong in my garage a lot, hit my goal of 120lbs down in 18 months and have had no issues. Might not be a good Idea but oh well only live once.
  2. I have a strange story my ex and wife became very good friends lol my wife asked her to be in our wedding lol and her parents flew out and and her father sang at our wedding my wife and her are great friends but being we live so far from them now we never hang out.
  3. Ouch!!! might want to see a Dr about that not sure if you have a husband but dam if ya do POOR guy I would have a very hard time dealing with that. As for the orginal post it should get better for ya.
  4. Well I thought I would reply for my wife being she has never been to this site. She calls him "Oh God Oh God Oh God"
  5. started at 350 17 months into it Im 112lbs down 8 from goal but Im thinking I might go 10 or so lower then my goal. Its been a great trip, hate to say it seeing how many have to work hard for it but its been a peice of cake for me lol would of been at goal months ago but drink to much beer. Good luck and good job to all of ya.
  6. Dont do it!!!! Go see a new Dr sounds like something is missing here!!!
  7. You are 5"11 240 based off a BMI calculator I found online you are 33.5 BMI and its states that above 30.0 is Obese. If I were you and I have been on the yo yo train most of the time I would have it done!!! Oh and you stated you are a low BMI at this time what is your norm? I dont see above 30 as low.
  8. Wow this band thing rocks! Im down 106 and looking at about 20 more and I will be at my goal. Wish I had gotten the band years ago lol
  9. I dont think your heartburn is caused by the smokeing, I smoke and have not had one case of heartburn while banded woot used to have it all the time.
  10. I think you need to ask him what the deal is? Sounds to me like the biggest problem is lack of real communication. Just send him a link to your post, seems like you covered most of your concerns!!! Ok lol dont send him the link but just sit him down and have a nice heart to heart!!! I can speak for myself but at age 42 I have been horny non-stop for 30 years and all male friends say the same thing, this leads me to believe there are some issues that you two need to get out into the open. The thought of only making sweet lovin 1 time a month would have me so down in the dumps! So good luck and let us know how the talk went.
  11. It's a LONG story maybe some time soon I will tell it!
  12. Wow sorry to say but your little 1-5 list for the most part puts you on the same level as that ass hat!! You have some living to do before you have a true education, those little diplomas they hand out at our facilities of higher education for the most part dont mean a thing other then to open a few doors when searching for a job, lol I work on a team of 12 10 have masters degrees and I happen to be one of those that has a associate degree lol Im the highest performer on the team by a long shot. Degree does not equal smart or educated!!! Just read your list again and wow its so wrong on so many levels surprised there was no mention of race.
  13. No they dont!!! So dont swet it just burn a fat one and chill.
  14. Ok Girls all the guys in the mens forum sent me over to request PICS.
  15. Aug 24 of this year was my one year being banded Im down 95lbs. Life is good I live in the Austin area is this was the hottest summer on record and wow it was not a big deal its cool in more ways then one how the heat is less of an issue when you are 95lbs down!!!
  16. Sorry to hear you are having a tuff time Erin, have you talked to your Dr? I say hang in there and I made the mistake early in trying to drink my broth, Water and shakes to fast and would feel like you. Tiny tine sips but all day long and remember you just had major surgery they stuck things in your body!!! It takes a while to heal. Good luck!
  17. Um not so much but look at my forum name it does!!!
  18. About an inch for me have not noticed a change in girth. Oh by the way I did notice that bad boy gets harder now. Im 90lbs down 40 to go. Ladies feel free to PM me for those before and after pics
  19. Well it was meant to be very funny first and just so happens to be true :thumbdown: OH and what did you expect from a guy with a user name of Boner!
  20. Hate to burst your bubble but have you ever read up on the germs in the Vag or for that matter the mouth. We are a breading ground for germs both inside and out good thing I dont mind a few germs :thumbup: I for one dig it and Im lucky my wife does too!!! We dont do it very often but have a blast when we do, oh by the way she loves having a finger in there just about all the time as we bang!
  21. Can you post a link to this, my guess is its only for maybe the first 60 lbs Im on track to lose 120lbs that would give me a 13incher lol it was never that big when I was thin!!! :mad2:
  22. Hate to say it but we are not the same people when we get fat!!! that sexy on the outside person is gone and being a guy thats key for many of us being we are so visual I dont think its shallow at all its just the way it is. Being the same person is the complete package not just whats on the inside, so enjoy yourself and his new interest in your body.
  23. Im at 5.5 in my 10cc band and I get .5cc a fill, and this last fill I for the first time felt real restriction and it rocks, I love it.
  24. I have been lucky so far Im more then have way to my goal of losing 120lbs and so far the skin seems to be shrinking with the weight even to the point that the stretch marks on my belly are 90% gone, was not expecting my skin to do so well at 41yo. My guess is I will end up with a little loose skin in the end but its ok I have always thought of myself as a Sexy Beast weather I was thin or over weight. If I were you I would not worry about it to much, for me I find a woman gets more sexy the more I get to know her, if she has the personality type I like. Oh and if you find you cant live with it look into getting it removed.
  25. Well this has been a great thing getting banded!!! to have the hunger that was on for 40 be turned off is so so cool I am about 20lbs behind schedule do to not getting fills for 3 months around Christmas time but thats ok, I still hope to make the 100lbs down in the first year. To anyone who is on the fence about getting banded dont be GET IT DONE it will change your life. Oh and by the way when ya have good restriction its EASY, the lbs just fall off, lol I'm not happy to say it but for the most part the band has done all the work, I was walking the first few month but have slacked off, might be time to get my ass in the gym.
