Yes I would've never guessed you were a large man from your pics now. Definately just mini-TT if you wanted it, but you definately don't need it! You look FAB-O!!

Ok, one weird thing is my boyfriend has this weird obsession bordering on obssessive compulsive disorder with germs/dirt. He swears he smells rotten dog piss 24/7 in our living room from some previous owners who let their dog go to the bathroom near the front door. Now I'll give him that if you sit on the particular part of the carpet or put your nose down near it you can get a whiff of it, but he swears its the only thing he smells 24/7 sitting 10 feet across the room even after we professionally shampooed the carpet 3 times and paid extra attention to that area. He was checking my feet quite often for dirt when we first moved in our new place w/ new carpet. I have a pair of slip on sandals by the garage door that I have to wear if I need to go out to the garage or dare face a foot inspection upon re-entering the house. Yes he's actually made me go wash my feet if they were even slightly dirty! He's one of those people who even has a sign posted on the front door to take off your shoes when you come in. We have separate bathrooms, but yet he will still make comments about the cluster fu*k I have on my bathroom sink of all the items I use daily and he'll know if my toilet needs clean before I do - I just tell him if he doesn't like it then don't go in my bathroom! He has his own - he says he just doesn't understand why I have to be like that - I don't understand why he has to be like that! And the grand daddy of them all - he became friends with a neighbor down the street who were lets say - well they were dirty people - literally. I guess they became better friends and he had invited Jon into his house. Apparently the house was sooo disgusting that poor Jon came home convinced the neighbor had given him LICE. He was itching and scratching his whole body for DAYS and no matter how much I looked in his hair, body etc. I could not convice him otherwise. Also the neighbor & his kids had all shaved heads so this only added to Jon's paranoia. This went on until I brought home a at home lice kit to take care of everything and only then after he did the lice treatment did he calm down. Least to say he never went to the neighbors house again and I never had any symptoms. But he is a good man who keeps my house clean so I can't complain since I don't have to do it, I just have to put up with his OCD over it! Sometimes I just want to slap him!

Have you lost your "Wild Thang" urges?

Well with your situation - again I highly recommend the X-Scream - just a little dab will do and it heightens any touch or feelings to the chachee and makes it all warm and tingly! Try the goat weed too! Try all of these suggestions in one night - makeup, hair, music, candles, lingerie, goat week, X-Scream - wow what a night that would be! Foreplay starts way before the bedroom - Jon gave me a tender kiss before work tonight and as I was leaving I threw a sexy glance over my shoulder on the way out the door and he gave me this cute little wink back. I think that's the first time he's ever winked at me and we've been together 3 years. It made me want to call in sick to work in the worst way, LOL. -
This is the only one I have a picture of, but I recently just had it re-done for my 25th birthday so it looks freaking awesome right now - I had him shade in some rose pink color so it makes it look a little scarred which actually represents that time of my life very well, it is a symbol for CHAOS. My other tattoos are of a colorful sun on my ankle which represents the light at the end of dark period in my life and my best friend who helped me through that time also got the same one on his ankle at the same time so it was a very bonding experience for us. I also have a shamrock surrounded by fire on my lower back to my butt crack and then above the shamrock it says "LUCKY" and under the shamrock at the top of my ass crack its says "YOU" - its a fun conversation piece when your doing the ol'dirty deed. Jon likes to ask "Lucky Me huh?" The shamrock represents what you earned upon entering your first structure fire at the fire dept. and of course the flames surrounding it represent the actual fire. Its an old tradition at our fire house, not the tattoo, but you earn a shamrock on your fire helmet. It was again a time in my life I never wanted to forget. The "LUCKY YOU" was just because I'm a sassy gal in the bedroom and thought it would be fun. I already have numerous tattoos planned for the future, but some of them I'm waiting for the weight loss. My first one after all the weight loss will be of my alter ego which is this really sexy pin-up gal cartoon, naked with a beautiful body and long flowing red hair - I plan on putting her somewhere private to represent the woman within me and how I see myself. I won't go on about the others since this post is too long already. BUT I LOVE BEING INKED!!!! I think everyone NEEDS at least one in their lifetime, but make sure it has meaning and you'll never regret it - don't just go and get a TRAMP STAMP to be cute.

WARNING - I USE THE F WORD A LOT IN THIS POST SO DON'T READ IF YOU GET OFFENDED EASILY I also really enjoyed Vines colorful post and the fact that she didn't sugar coat it and came right and said DUTY FUCKS - never heard it before but it sure fits the bill. I know all of these suggestions on here are great, but I think they wouldn't be helpful in your situation. I think its a more serious underlying problem - would you mind telling us how you feel about Paul? Why do you almost feel physically sick at the thought of sex with him? I know my heart and my chachee are linked hand in hand and if one of them is not in sync then there ain't no enjoying anything. Whether I'm horny or not if I'm upset or hurt or whatever at Jon then I just can't get past that enough to enjoy sex with him but will still and have on occasion given him the token duty fuck instead of talking with him about the problem so he could never say I didn't fulfill my wifely duties even though he is not the type of man to even ask for a duty fuck and he was unaware that it actually was a duty fuck. If he knew I was just giving a duty fuck then I'm sure he would never want it that way - he'd rather wait till I was in the mood which makes me love him more. But I have a friend who is GORGEOUS and skinny and she just never has really enjoyed sex all that much. Her ex-boyfriend was constantly berating her for not giving it up more than once a week and she only gave him the once a week because he wouldn't leave her alone. She even said she'd roll to her side and say just do it and get it over with and the bastard actually would! I can't imagine being with a man who would rather I just give it up without any heart in it than wait until we were both on the same page. I would try to look into your feelings behind sex w/ Paul. Do you ever look deep within yourself and get upset about how he'd rather have the duty sex with you than no sex at all? Just trying to help explore some other possible reasons here. P.S. If thats not the case, I did want to highly recommend the X-Scream from Delarla - I know that when my heart is in it but my chachee isn't - a little dab of it will make my chachee wake right up! -
Kudos to you PuddinPop - stay that way! That is a very strong virtue and shows a lot of your character! Jon and I have been getting it on a lot more than usual here lately and I've actually been doing a little Reverse Cowgirl ridin a lot more than what used to be NEVER - but if we're talking favorites, doggy and funked up missionary are my faves! He's been able to last a lot longer too although I haven't had a substantial amount of weight loss yet. It all just seems so much more intense each time - I can't imagine being at my goal weight and what the sex will be like then - I'M GOING TO BE SWINGING FROM THE CEILING FANS!!!!!!!!!!!!! YYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAWWWWWWW COWGIRL!!!!!! LOOK OUT CUZ I'M GOING TO SAVE A HORSE AND RIDE A COWBOY!!!

No, my laughter will only grow as my body shrinks. Laughter has always been my way of life and I will always be a former fat chick with all that sass and piazz that makes me unique - without that - I'd just be another skinny bimbo someday and who wants to be just a skinny bimbo?

Ok Vines - I'm here and with a very sincere apology for ditching out when I got too discouraged to come and face LBT everyday. I posted over on the Slow Loser thread and I should follow your example by not just bugging out on our Turtle Tribe. I'm soo sorry. Here I am - steady and strong and ready to help us Turtles lead the path! I feel like we need some sort of Turtle Battle Cry!!!!!!! But turtles don't make any sounds except their legs scratching the ground when they get stuck on their backs and try to flip over.........hmmmmm that's an appropriate analagy as I recently felt like I was on my back and struggling to get flipped over and back on my feet except I didn't make any scratching noises.......or did I?.............GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR TURTLE POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just joined a few weeks ago and love it. I go 3-4 times a week and go twice around the 16 machine circuit. I get a great workout and am already seeing results. They don't have the ring the bell get a prize crap at the one I go to, but I saw them doing something similiar like a challenge you could sign up for, but it was all voluntary. The one downfall I have is along the same lines of the pep rallies - except its not really a pep rally but whoever is working that day will talk to me constantly and I MEAN CONSTANTLY! I HATE IT! I want to close my mind and get into the zone as I concentrate going around the circuit - not make idle chitchat about the crappy weather and what I do for a living and having to hear all about some old ladies daughter who has diabetes and the 2 lbs she lost at Christmas! I don't want to be rude, but I can get better results if I'm left alone. I understand some women prefer to be pepped and talked to, but they need to consider others who don't. I've tried everything possible to be polite but she just wont shut up already! I can't take an IPOD because usually I'm the only one there working out so I wouldn't be able to hear when to change stations. I thought I was going to get lucky the other day when another lady came into workout and the lady who works there started talking to her finally but then the lady who was working out WHO I'VE NEVER MET turns to me and says "Don't you know your supposed to talk and keep me company while I work out?" Again I'm too polite to say whats really on my mind, but I'm going to have to figure out something different. Again I understand maybe the majority of people might like to make friends and talk, but for me its not a gab fest like at the hair salon - I'M THERE TO GET SOME REAL WORK DONE! Sorry - I just needed to let all that out. Love the workout though!
-
Your on the right path girlfriend - we're making progress here! That is something to praise God for - finally you are getting long awaited answers and soon you will have them all. Keep the faith my friend!!
-
Oh VINES! I've missed you too - I've been thinking of you even though I stopped spending so much time on LBT. I'll be honest, I was getting so so so so discouraged with no weight loss that spending all my time on LBT was starting to thoroughly frustrate me. I'm glad I came back today because I was just thinking I finally had something to post. 1st off - I've been doing my Curves workout 3 times a week sometimes if I can manage I squeeze in 4. I've done 7 workouts total and get this - for the first time in a very very long time I feel something shifting deep within me. It is affecting every part of me - very slowly but surely. I feel like I'm beginning to wake up - I can't really explain it, but its not going un-noticed. My mom told me I was looking good the other day and really cute in my workout outfit - my friend at work said it looked like I'd lost a little weight - and the other night when Jon and I were making love he stopped to tell me that although its only been a short time, he was very proud of me for going to the gym and he could tell its making a difference. He said I was looking really good and soon I'd be even more beautiful than I already am and he was so happy I am all his. This coming from a man who rarely compliments anything. I have to say the sex has been increasingly better, more intense and it has to do with what is going on inside of me. I don't see the physical changes because they are so slight, and the scales haven't moved yet, but I am feeling the power within me that I had lost long ago. I had forgotten what strength I have in myself. What I feel is.....................MY journey has finally just begun.

Kare did you change your user name or have I just missed it? I've never noticed the devil part before. Kare you keep up that attitude because someday sex is going to be oh so sweet for you! I'm with my boyfriend but I still dream of someday sex just in a different way from you! Like things I'm not able to do at this size etc. That's good motivation right there!
-
Oh yes Delarla - do point out about the sex issue because that is going to start getting wayyyyyyyyy better! It was a huge thing with Jon and he slightly embarrasses me a little when friends ask why he wanted to quit and his main reason was because he couldn't make love to his old lady without feeling like he was going to die afterwards from being out of breath - now it is much more comfortable - he doesn't look like he's going to pass out trying to catch his breath afterwards and he's only been smoke free for 1 year but the effects in the bedroom were noticeable almost immediately. Tell him to keep it up! - (no pun intended, well ok yea I did intend :heh:)
-
Thank you! I hadn't thought of that perspective - I will take that positive thought with me into my workouts - I'm actually kind of excited about this!
-
So how'd the sex turn out - was it a good "workout"??? YEA BABY!

When my boyfriend quit smoking over a year ago he was sooo moody and irrational since he had smoked since he was 8 or 9 - so 20 years of smoking. He did not leave the house or go out with me in public for like 3-4 months! Even if there was a cigarette on TV - he'd flip the channel even if we were in the middle of a program. One night I came home so mad at him because I had won free tickets to a comedy club off the radio and was soo excited about it - but he had only been smoke free for a short time - he never was man enough to say he wasn't strong enough to go into a smoking environment yet. Instead he made me think he was just being an A-hole for saying he didn't want to go so I scrounged all night and found a friend to go with me but after I'd been thinking all night about how he ditched me on something that would have been so much fun - I came home all hopped up and mad going off on him about what a bad boyfriend he was to make me go alone until I found a friend at the last minute and only then did he really confess that he couldn't handle being in public around smokers yet. It took a good 4 months before his moodiness finally settled down - I didn't think we were going to make it though it! Its so hard and your a good woman to stick by him Delarla! I've been there too!

My scale cusses at me! I just can't hear it because its covered by a big long edited BEEEEEPPPPPP like when they cover up cuss words in movies & music!!!!!!! I stand on the scale and it gives me my weight - then it tries to calculate my body fat % and the numbers start spinning like a slot machine and finally it gives up and just gives me an ear piercing BEEEEPPPPPP!!! When really underneath the BEEP I swear if I listen closely I can hear it say DAMN BI*CH YOUR TOO BIG! GET OFF ME! I curse back with a grunted F*CK YOU and toss him back in the dark closet for punishment until the next time! If I can ever get the scale to act like he should and keep moving the numbers down then he can earn his stay out with the other good gadgets in the household.

OK ok - I am so fed up with no more weight loss! Yoga and walking ain't cutting it so drum roll please...............I join Curves on Thursday which is my 1st apointment. This is a huge step as I have never belonged to a gym before in my entire life, but let me tell you what happened first. My best friend (who is slightly overweight) joined 24 Hour Fitness and so I thought it would be the perfect time to join a gym since my weight loss has been so little. I arrive at 24 Hour Fitness and I was completely overwhelmed with what stood before me. The huge parking lot was crammed with cars but I found a parking space. I got out of the car and ran into a group of young SKINNY beautiful women nearby who were finished with their workouts so I returned to my car and pretended to grab my cell phone until they pulled out. I talked to myself about how ridiculous I had just reacted and got out of the car again - this time I made it halfway up the parking lot when I just kept seeing more SLIM & SVELT (yes I just said SVELT people coming and going and I once again felt this overwhelming anxiety and returned yet once again to my car to calm down. I thought to myself this is completely ridiculous - I did not drive all this way just to chicken out. 3RD attempt - this time I made it all the way close to the front glass doors where I could see inside the massive warehouse type gym with hundreds and hundreds of machines and tons of people inside working out. The place was packed! I freaked out again and pretended to pat my pockets down like I again forgot something in the car. This time I said screw it - if I feel sooo uncomfortable and intimidated that I can't even get the courage up to walk inside and inquire about membership - how in the world was I expecting to return and do this 3-4 times a week! I knew if I chose this gym it would be a lost cause as I was dang nearing a panic attack upon entering the doors! I thought damnit I want to join a gym and do something about my pretty non-existent weight loss and that was what I had set out to do that evening. So I called information and got the number to the closest Curves near me and drove my sweet lil Camaro right on over. I walked in to find only 1 woman working out and 1 staff member at the front desk. It felt like a breath of fresh air as soon as I walked in. I knew this was something I could do. I even told the Curves staff my ordeal I just went through and she was very understanding and welcomed me with open arms. So I set my first evaluation where they measure you & show you how to do everything on Thursday.............please God let this be the answer I've been needing.
