Daisy, I think it's great to play the field! Way to go shoving your food onto his plate. That made me smile. :)

I look forward to dating again. I am mentally fit, and when I am again physcially fit I'll be ready to bring a lot of value to a relationship. I am a retired college and university professor, with a background in management, marketing and law.

I am a licensed lawyer in Georgia and I own www.GeorgiaLoanClosers.com a loan closing business in Georgia.

I had my surgery in Tijuana on 02/20/2010. The experience was not perfect, but the doctor was excellent and the folks I was with were exceptional. I am dropping weight and am looking forward to being on this journey with others.

I'm 59, SWM, non-religious, 5'9" tall. I think it would be great to be in a relationship with a woman who truly understands our journey and our road to recovery.

OMG I can't believe you pushed most of your food onto his plate!! It's straight out of a sit-com (sp?) very cute. Glad it went well. Cheers to you Daisy.

So update.....

Things still going great with Mr. Intellectual! I like him more and more everyday, and even got him to join the gym with me.

The only thing is...he's really inexperienced with women. Like, really, really. Something I am not used to. He's only had one real girlfriend before me, and he's 40. I can't seem to get past that.

Any ideas? Can guys be taught at that age??? lol

Ugh...not that sex is everything...but it's pretty important to me.

Is this too much information??? haha

Go slow, very slow. If you are satisfied with a fling, then you don't risk a lot, except STDs. Someone without sexual partners may have deeper issues than you may see on the surface. Good luck.

Even though I'm not single, I just want to comment on the inexperienced lover thing.

And, no, it's not too much information.

My husband was not very experienced before me. He had 3 other partners/girlfriends, and while he knew the mechanics, it took awhile for us to figure each other out. Things were hot and heavy when we were doing the long distance relationship thing. Once we moved in together, things calmed down, once we were married, and took on the father/husband role, our sex life when to the other end of the spectrum. It's more intimate, not as dirty, and adventurous, but least to say, it's much more pleasurable than it was before. Maybe it's because we are more connected emotionally and mentally.

For the most part, John was easy to guide into what I liked and didn't like. I was ummm a bit more experienced, okay, a lot more experienced, but realized real quick that he was different than any man I had ever been with.

Anyways, every man and woman can be shown what you like and don't like. I definitely recommend watching porn together (if you're into that), and role playing always helps.

Surprising John always helps ramp things up for us. . .

I'm with you that sex is a big thing in a relationship. I feel like if it isn't happening in the bedroom, then it isn't going to happen out of the bedroom.

And, while I see Burton's point about limited sexual experience, John told me after we had been together for awhile that he wishes he would have saved himself for me. John is not the average 27 yr old man when it comes to sex. It's something to be cherished, and not taken lightly. He is the most loving, sweet, and passionate lover I've ever had, and while sometimes it's nice to be called a "dirty slut" John could never utter those words to me because he says "I respect you, and our love way too much to see you like that". We're still a work in progress.

Ya know, a good slap on the a$$ never hurt anyone, it took me 2 years to get John to do that or pull my hair, seriously ! ! ! Like I said, we're a work in progress.

If you watched Sex and the City, remember when Charlotte married her husband and he couldn't have sex with her because he respected her too much or saw her as his virginal wife, ummm yeah that was us for awhile.

Least to say, it's been interesting since I've lost weight ha ha ha.

Chancie, why is it so much easier to connect over the net? I actually got engaged to someone I met on the net. He moved to California for six months and it was great. I moved to him home (out of state) and it just didn't work on his turf. I ended up moving back home. Thankfully I was able to get my job back and had left a few of my prized posessions with my son here at home.

Up to a year ago, dated a guy off and on for three years that answered my yahoo ad. It turned out that he lived a mile from me and we had a lot in common. In the end he wasn't my "one", but that was ok because I felt it from the start but it was fun to go out and play.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
