Real Life Sex Educator Here---Feel Free to Ask Questions!
rodriguezequal replied to cattoy71's topic in The Gals' Room
One of my favorite places online and in store is loverspackage.com it's a store we have here in WA and we used to love going there, but now that we have a baby we can't take him in so we shop online...also adameve.com is a nice place to check out :thumbup: personally I didn't like the vibrating ring...everytime we buy one it ends up breaking grrr...and before it broke it just wasn't that great..it would roll and not be in the right spot...DH and I have lots of toys and goodies so if anyone is ever curious about something along those lines I know quite a bit...first hand lol....feel free to ask on here or you can send me a personal message :thumbup: I'm not shy and no question is too strange or anything for me :smile: Right before my hubby deployed last year for Iraq he came home with a "Clone a Willy Kit" It was so neat and useful for when he was gone for 15 months...I recommend it to a lot of my friends that have hubbys in the military :ohmy: Fun fun -

Band Changes During Pregnancy
rodriguezequal replied to HeatherO's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I'm not pregnant :tongue2:...(sadly I have to wait at least another year or so before I can even consider another baby, due to problems that I had with my son), but my surgeon said that they will just about completely unfill patients when they become pregnant...I guess everyone's surgeon has a different way of doing things though Good luck and congrats!!! -
Which Band - Realize or Allergan/Iname
rodriguezequal replied to texasweb's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I picked the Allergan band. My surgeon does both and didn't knock either one. She just said they do the same job it was just up to me. I didn't like how the port of the Realize was attached and it was a little more expensive (I'm a self-payer). I liked that the one I have comes in sizes and I like the shape of it and how it seems to contour to the shape of my stomach. The Realize came with a website too, but in the end I probably would forget about it or just get bored with it...so for me it was an easy choice that had nothing to do with this band is better or that band is older or anything...It was just the one I liked :tongue2: -
New Blender - Magic Bullet?
rodriguezequal replied to trayrenee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I LOVE MY BULLET!!! It's not only convenient, but the size of it is perfect. I can make things in it for just one serving or I can use the bigger "cup" and make something for my hubby and myself!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! -
My band is all silicone except for the titanium in the back of the port so...no I'm not worried...I asked my doctor about what it was made of and stuff before getting it done...it's made to last...it's built Ford tough!!!! lol

It's cheating to me...It's like saying o hey you over there...you work with your hands for a living right...come give me a "happy ending". That's like saying that only sexual intercourse and oral sex is cheating, but masturbating someone else or having it done to yourself is okay...I don't think so....My hubby has happy endings only by me or himself!!!! lmao
-
I think you may have overracted...I think that magazines are okay and fine...I mean it is legal, but my husband and I have discussed porn before and we agreed that internet porn is something that I prefer he didn't look at/watch, but that I was fine with magazines...maybe your hubby wants to be crazy in bed with you, but he is worried about how you would react...that's how my hubby was and when we sat down and talked about it he relized that I'm crazy too lol. I look at porn and one night I turned porn on with my hubby and we "watched" it together...lol. Sometimes you have to just make the move on him as the slutty girl...dress up have fun with it...It's just up to you...if you think you did the right thing then you did, but if your guilty and upset with yourself than obviously you feel you overreacted :thumbdown: Good luck I hope it works out ok for you.

I use care credit and they didn't put on that big of a fee if any....Most loans you do have to pay back the money with interest and what not...? As a self payer I went in for my psych eval and my nurses consultation and the next day was my surgeons consult and then about 6 days later I was having my surgery so I didn't really have to jump through any hoops...?

I've only had one fill...when I went in for my second fill I had lost quite a bit more than 1-2 pounds a week so they decided not to fill any more yet...I'm going to go in sometime this week...I think I need one now

I agree!!!! I wouldn't want to anyways :| yuck lol

Rice, bread and tortillas o my
rodriguezequal posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Okay so I am having trouble adjusting to the idea that I'll never be able to have bread, pasta, tortillas or rice ever again. I'm armenian and my husband is Mexican so tortillas are big in his culture and rice and pita bread are big in mine...am I ever going to be able to have pilaf or sarma (stuffed grape leaves) again? I've only had one fill because since then I have been too afraid to go back since my first one wasn't a good experience and because it's an hour and ten minute drive one way!!! I cry all the time and I hate my body almost as much as I did before the surgery...I don't know. Maybe I'm just being a baby...any tips or anything? Thanks in advance!!! -
Rice, bread and tortillas o my
rodriguezequal replied to rodriguezequal's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had Dr. Chock, but I have met with him too...he was just voted best doctor (in his field) in WA!!! He is so nice and the nurses/staff and the annesthisiologist (sp?) are all wonderful. After my surgery I was feeling fine...it felt like I did a whole lot of crunches/sit-ups! About 4 days after my surgery I started having really bad lower abdominal pain...I called the on call and left a message and Dr. M called me back within 3-4 minutes and was very nice (the pain had nothing to do with the pain by the way). I love NWWLS and I am so glad that I went through them...they have forums through yahoo so you can talk to other bandsters in this area. I live in University Place so I have a good hour and 10 minute drive :| lol. They have support groups too that are so great!!! Good luck...if you ever need to talk or anything I check the site a few times a day . Take care and good luck again :thumbup: -
Are We ready for a Black President?
rodriguezequal replied to TheWatcher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My husband said that on the Iraq flag the black means Martyrdom, it can also symbolize revenge or mourning....and I know that the flag upside down is a sign of distress....I think this guy is an idiot... -

rodriguezequal replied to rodriguezequal's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Every Christamas my grandma makes a huge Armenian feast....shish, sarma, pilaf, bulgar, souborag, stuffed peppers and tomatoes....I cannot wait to see what things I can eat...I really want to have some sarma, souborag, and maybe a little pilaf or bulgar, but I think I may just have to have a couple sarma and maybe some shish.. :laugh: I love Armenian food grrrr :thumbup: lol -

Should prostitution be legal?
rodriguezequal replied to Carrie_C's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions

Should prostitution be legal?
rodriguezequal replied to Carrie_C's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I think it should be legal...In vegas they have "Bunny Ranch" and if they have a positive STD/HIV/AIDS test done then they redo the test to make sure and then the person that has tested positive is on suspention from prostituting until they have a negative test...I think it would be better legal because then maybe it wouldn't be so back allied and dangerous...but that's just my opinion... :rolleyes2: -
For me the only thing that really works for my UTIs besides meds is drinking lots and lots of cranberry juice...not cocktail or cran grape...just cranberry!!! I always works for my UTIs...I don't think I would put yogurt up there, but that's just me...also make sure that you and your partner are good and clean down there BEFORE sex and after...Good luck

It looks nice and all, but I found the old one a lot easier to navigate and I just plain liked it...I think I prefer the old look, but I'm sure I'll adjust :rolleyes2:
