  1. Hot Damm Jack, do you want to write a book? We will need to get several of the Hot Babes in this form to add their storys. How about it girls, I know that you read this thread.
  2. Please tell us about your fill. Was it done with a flouroscope? Was the fill put in untill water would not go down, then some removed?
  3. Turning sideways to go through doorways. Before I got huge I needed to turn sideways to go through narrow doors, after gaining weight it did not matter. Round is round, pound for pound.
  4. Interesting reading http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070126/hl_nm/normal_weight_dc Sample: "Overall, the researchers found, the NWO group had higher levels of several inflammatory Proteins than normal-weight women did. The excess body fat in the former group may explain the difference, as research suggests that fat tissue secretes inflammatory substances, De Lorenzo and his colleagues note. Because inflammation has been implicated in the buildup of artery-clogging plaques, women who have a normal weight but high fat mass may be at increased risk of heart disease and stroke down the road, according to the researchers. What's more, they point out, these women are likely to have a false sense of security about their heart health because their BMI is normal.] This means that measuring body fat percentage, and not just BMI, could be an important part of preventing obesity-related ills, the researchers conclude."
  5. Approved, what a great word.
  6. Jump all the hurdles that are put in your way. It will be worth it.
  7. It only takes one little bit of food that is not chewed to start the problem. A minor distraction like talking to someone is all it takes to allow me to swollow too soon. It is work to remember that I must chew.
  8. For your safety, stay away from foods that give you gas, it will not be fun.
  9. I also eat many very small meals, skipping the bad foods. I am srinking all the time. I coughed the other day and had to catch my pants before they fell all the way off. Some problems were just not planed for, LOL.
  10. One mouthfull quick, easy
  11. If I fail to chew to a paste it can become painfull. I have found that if I eat soft food I will sometimes not chew it enough and cause a problem. I almost never have trouble with tough food, I remember to chew, chew.
  12. marni Are you eating less? loosing weight ?
  13. Sexersize is one form of recovery that helps two hearts at a time, or maybe more if you are into group stuff. Feeling better just makes life more fun.
  14. Has anyone ever nicked themselves while shaving? It a place for infection to start. Who wants more trouble, let the nurse do it.
  15. When you do not want something it is everywhere :heh:
  16. 28, 5'10", 375 you may not be able to life insurance for him, he may not see 40 years old. But if he were to loose 40 pounds a year for 4 years then he would be 32, 5'10, 215 a good risk for insurance, live to 75 and be much happier along the way. You will need to consider that he may be a target of other womens desires, but I feel you will be able to handle that. Best wishes on a long life of happyness for both of you.
  17. The federal Agency for health care Research and Quality released a study in July that said four in 10 weight-loss surgery patients develop complications within six months. Among adults, mortality rates among gastric bypass patients remain at between 1 in 100 and 1 in 200 patients. Laparoscopic gastric banding has been shown to have a much smaller death rate — about 1 in 1000 patients — but complications do occur. You will be the one to judge your doctor and decide your path. Try to do as much homework as possable. Best of luck/
  18. jack always has good advice, how did he get so smart?
  19. new study says band is 50 times safer, I will try to look up the referance.
  20. As I like to read, some of todays stuff is that 5 minutes of hard work followed by 15 minutes of lesser workout will burn more fat than 20 minutes of steady workout.
  21. Try the online doctors, they write scrips, cheap. No hard core drugs.
  22. "Their bodies are literally tricked into a starvation mode" http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/02/070206132121.htm
  23. No, I will not post the pictures that my girl HAD to take. She has them hidden. It still brings tears to my eyes, I laughed so hard...
