Suggestion For Adult Board



Recommended Posts

i like the sex threads. For me sex has always been good, but after loosing 50lbs its even better! I want to talk about it , toss around some ideas or even some insecurities. OH has a sex forum, we could add one here we can have the lounge and the bedroom lol

... tossing roung insecurities .... that's one of the reason I think that the sex threads are so important. We have many bandsters who've been fat their entire lives and haven't felt good about their bodies in a long time, if ever.

I think we need someplace to talk about these new feelings, but I think just labeling the threads is good enough.

Sorry Kylie if I offended. I am very glad you opted for the band instead of the other surgeries. I have a problem with WLS in the young because I deeply believe that not only is anatomy still shifting and evolving, but behavior and emotions too. Most of my band issues are emotional in nature and I know that I would not have been able to "handle it" whan I was fifteen.

I am glad you are progressing toward your goals and doing everyting you can to be healthy and happy. Thank you for replying to my post, I needed to hear it.

My question is... how did you find it? Are you supposed to be on this thread?

What do you think? Do we need a locked area, or are clear titles enough? I know fifteen isn't nearly as young as it used to be. Have you been shocked or offended by anything you've found here?

I don't think that areas need to be locked. Most of the things that the older people talk about are nothing new to me. Honestly, most of the things they talk about are things that, surprising as it may be, people at my school talk about.

So what's the general consensus of the board ? Have we decided how to approach this yet ?

Gosh I must be missing something. Where are the threads about sex? :) I've seen from time to time someone asking an honest question about sex and the band. I think that is legimate and I was curious about that as well. Don't want to give everything up! I think most can decide whether they want to read a thread or not. For instance, I know when I go into the American Idol thread I'm not going to read about the band. If you get started on this then we won't have someone sharing their surgery photos with us. I personally was so intrigued by that thread and the person posting warned upfront that the photos were graphic. I vote for self censorship.

I agree with you that self censorship should be the way to go. Let's see how it works.....

I'm pretty sure we decided to just mark our naughty threads with an XXX. No adult board necessary.

I'm OK with creating an adult board if that's what everybody wants ?

Marking the thread with an XXX is a great idea!

I think we decided on no separate forum because we wanted not to encourage MORE sex talk that wasn't band related.

If we had a separate forum, folks would feel obligated to fill it up...

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
