Monique Salmond

I am a little conflicted right now. Lets start with stats. Started out at 252 lbs on January 18 2012. And as of June 9 2012 I am 194. went from a womens 20/22 to a 12/13, 3XL to a L. I kick a$$ in the gym and own it EVERY time. I am doing great as far as restriction. MY PROBLEM? My marriage. At first sex was great I was feeling sexy I was a lioness and happy and feeling so close to my husband. NOW, I am so sad. sad it hurts. I cry. I feel alone. I AM ALONE! Im never happy and nothing is EVER good enough. I clean with no direction or accomplishment. I am always cleaning and moving and organizing but my house is a dump. I get over whelmed and end up barking at every one. I feel I have no support. I usually am ok when I focus on other things like the kids and the gym. But the moment I start cleaning, I get a lil OCD. Things that didnt bother me or matter before I am now ripping apart and rebuilding. I feel everyone else is excited and proud of me except my husband. I dont even feel like calling him my husband. I want to call him what he is, a room mate. I feel so empty and lonely and its making me out to be a very angry and miserable person.

Heck yeah! You go girl! WORK IT! Lol. I find I'm able to do better positions and I last a lot longer as far as liking the burn I get from... working it! Sneak in a mini workout

I say drop her if she doesnt want to support you thru your harder times then she can sit on the sidelines. If and when you see her dont inform her of things. Just hi, Im well. How are you and let it be. Iknow I had A LOT of family and friends tell me I was going to die having the surgery. Im down 55 lbs and feel amazing. Still not goal weight (about 30 more to go) but I am happy I weeded out a lot of the negative people in my life. The WLS is very hard to deal with emotionally and mentally and then the food and to add negative people is just not something you should put yourself thru. good luck and hope to hear something on a more positive note in a few months... Maybe some wedding photos! Enjoy YOUR life and dont worry about hers!

Well since I posted this topic sex has become less frequent cause I give my all at the gym. I usually dont leave until I am crawling out to my car, I go all out! Well, now when we do umm do it it should prob be broadcast!!! XD Seriously, more positions, longer lastin (i uped it and hes trying to keep up), working up a dripping sweat... I loved sex before (SA) but now its just deeper and meaningful rather than fulfilling a sexual need. Its more connected, more intense and SO much better than before... Keep it yummy in the bed room bandsters!

I was in the ARMY TOO!!! 31B, MP's Lead the Way! Im so excited I tried on my post Army"fat pants" and they fit...Im working on push up and sits ups again but Im still afraid of failing. IKNOWImnot physically where i Need to be so I havent got down on all fours yet just walls or crunches. But at my 6 month mark I want to see how I "pass" the APFT. Which is only merely weeks away! HOOAH!

MY DOCTOR!!! AMAZING LOVING AND COMPASSIONATE <3

That is GREAT!!! Congrats! I just past my 4 months, down 55 lbs. From a size 20/22 to a 12!! The BEST feeling EVER! I feel bad for those who it doesnt work for. I thank God I got lucky and have had such sucess! Life has been so different since I "got my life back" XD To many more pounds down the drain!

Today my "Fill Dr" said to stop crunches and sit ups cause it can tear the port and cause it to be superficial. What kind of midsection workouts couldI do to trim this muffin top. Losing weight fast, not really the tummy. I workout daily if not at LEAST 3 times a week most times twice a day walking and running weight training swimming.. Any pointers would be welcomed. Thanks!
