IMHO, counseling for both your husband and yourself is probably needed. He may have been beaten down for his whole life that he accepts this behavior from his family. Both of you need to talk to them and let them know that you love them and want to have a relationship with them, but you will no longer accept this type of behavior. Then distance yourself from them if it continues, they are like cancer to your mental and physical health. YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO BE ABUSED! As far as being "hit" is concerned, that is a chargeable offense. I hope this is resolve quickly for the well being of both of you. Good luck and stay strong, you deserve happiness.

Do you have comorbidities such as HBP, type-2 diabetes, sleep apnea, etc? If so, then you may qualify with a lower BMI. Get your surgeon and PCP to challenge this for you. Good luck.

It was already cooked by the time I came home from work. I'll have to ask our kids what they did to make her that mad.

That is a very creative idea and quite funny too when you compare what you needed to do to keep the virtual pet alive. I think my weight problem stemmed from my mimicking how Pac-Man ate.

That sounds better than what my wife made for dinner last night.

I started my pre-surgery diet at 352lbs. My measured highest was in the 370's. I guess it meant I had more to love.

Having the surgery, never. Not having the surgery years back, yes.

....assets, you had 1/2 of that word right regarding what that guy was looking for.

The "Badly Drawn Dolphin" drawn upside down would be perfect for the post "Private Fat Loss". http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/352653-private-fat-loss/

You should have asked him "How big is your package?". When he told you, you should have replied back "Mine is bigger".

Also try positioning your feet in different locations and shift your body weight until it reads a little lower.

There is a difference between "kinky" and "perverted". A kinky person uses feathers in the sex act; a pervert (bleeps) the whole chicken. (edited) Hmmmm, is it OKCPirate or KFCPirate?

You receive humanitarian aid in the form of food care packages from starving 3rd world nations.

You should have told her "How do you know what I have buried in my backyard?" That would have messed with her head!

Some people claim their memory improves by taking Gingko-Biloba. I have worked with some people who really need to take Gingko-Viagra, because they don't know what the (bleep) they are doing!

@CowgirlJane When i responded to this thread, it wasn't "marked" as mens room. I am not sure if it is due to the device I was using (I have a smart phone, kindle and laptop) or a system glitch. I am on my laptop now and it is clear but at the time i couldn't tell. I thought about going back and deleting it, but I dunno that any lives have been lost due to my post... A woman's perspective to some of the "Boys Only Club" questions could be very insightful. Guy's subjects: Sex Football Sex Baseball Sex Hockey Sex Power Tools Sex Cars Sex (you get the pattern)

I noticed ever since the surgery I had trouble...............What was the question again?

No Protein and no Vitamins? No problem. There are plenty of doctors and hospitals out there you can go to if you have health issues due to deficiencies. Follow your surgeon's and nutritionist's advice and read up as much as you can. You need to have enough protein and vitamins/minerals for normal metabolic function. Your body will suffer from certain deficiencies, maybe not right away but over time. The body will take protein from the muscles if you don't supply it enough and I believe it may take Calcium from the bones if you are deficient with that (I am not 100% sure). As a side note, don't overdose in vitamins & minerals either, certain ones have negative health effects in high dosages; luckily most are Water soluble, but that is not a good reason to take massive dosages of them.

If the question was "What body type did you have BEFORE your weight loss?", I would have said,"that of an athlete", And by that, I meant that of a Sumo wrestler.

I hope you mean the Nathans or Sabrett kind, otherwise I hope the chili isn't hot off the stove (OUCH!).

Brings a whole new meaning to Taco Bell's slogan "Make A Run For The Border". LIVE MAS!

Thanks for the image, I won't be able to look at a ham sandwich anymore without getting aroused. When I weighed over 350 pounds, I would have been turned on by just seeing a hoagie sandwich as just a sandwich.

ROTFL! Thankfully it doesn't go the bat wing route of excess arm skin as weight is lost, otherwise the labia would hang like mud flaps on a truck.

Should this topic be in a public forum or a "pubic" forum?
