Rita Ann

yes it is my name is Rita-Ann and I was banded onn 8/11/06 and I am down 67 + pounds and had my first tummy tuck in January......

I think when you feel better aobut yourself I think your more likely to take your clothes off. I use to dread it, even though I had a high sex drive I was more embarassed than anyhting. NOW leave the lights on the door open, who cares who hears me.... heheh

I think for us it has changed, It was always good, but now that I feel sexier and better about myself its changed, but I also think for us, when I feel great he notices and then he craves things more..

OMG I had my 2nd fill I can barely drink 3 caps full of water. I can even eat but 3 bites of cream soup, what should I do I am so thristy..

Well Hi all I ahven been on since before Thanksgiving and my 1st fill, well I just ahd my 2nd fill on thursday and boy oh boy my mouth/lips are so dry I cant drink anything more than a cap full of water at a time he tweeked it alot this time. I just got the runny nose thing yesterday in fact and I thought oh know another cold... but the hiccup thing and slimmy salivia OH boy yep get that. for sone reason after my 1st fill which he put in 1.5 cc's I ate more but got stuck sooner.. but when I did my swallow test the other day he said I was flowing like I never had a fill? so he put in 1.3cc's more so I would assume I have 2.8 cc's in the band which I ahve a 4cc band. so me and my runny nose better loose a little more now. I am down 53 pounds and banded since 8/11/06 and my G/F hadit done at the same time she has no fill and is down 77 she have NEVER cheated I on the other hand am human and at times weak. she started out 30 more than me and we are about the same now how weird.

I was had my first fill today, Dr. Berths put 1.8cc in what I think is the smaller band, I kow Dr. Abkin didn't use the one that Dr. Bertha always uses, I was still loosing but I am so worried about the holidays I thought I would nip my fear in the bud. I started out at 225 and I am now 183 so far so good. keep me posted on all of you, work is crazy so I am on much less than before thanks for your loving support all of you. I have a new pic I am going to up load..

my 2 little guys ahve no idea but my 18 year knows he thinks its great my younger 2 just think I am on a really good diet and tell me how good I look. It really depends on how you feel your kids will react. I decided not to go into it until they were older and I could tell them what I did for our family.. good luck with it..

I dont think just because you were molested as a child you will molest. you can't say that. It happened to me when I was in 6th grade by my mother's boyfriend when she was in the hospital having surgery.it happened 2 timese in 3 days and never again. I never told anyone until I was in marriage counseling at 25. I was not my fault but I trust no one with my children I am very observant and I would never even think of doing that. it makes me cry that some one would do it. as a mother I am here to protect my children and I tell them often that it could be anyone, those children didnt deserve this from there own dad. So much for the meaning of daddys little girl, he ought to be hung by his man hood. I pray for the girls and there mother. I know God will forgive him if this guy askes him to do so. as a christain I should forgive him but as a woman wife and mother NEVER... Tired old man I wish you the very best luck with this you to need prayer as well this must be hard for you, but remember he could have did it to you children then how would you feel.. I dont want you to come down with Cancer and I get your point but realize we all have our own opinions on this, and we are all intitled to them..
