Hey bearded, I like those kinda of bf's. They are pretty much perfect for the most part.

YA--but think of what you miss...the arguing, the I

dont have neclothes clean, the seat up...etc.

I think John Cougar said it best "I want a woman to thrill me then go away" Same can be said about a man I guess.....:smile1:

I don't know, there isn't anything that can replace snuggling up to a man on a cold, cold night.

I agree with you there Susan ... if it's the right man that is.

Ruthi, you are too funny. Vegas, I agree, it does have to be the right man.

Did anyone else catch the new tv show on FOX last night MORE TO LOVE, it is a take off of The Bachelor, but it is done with overweight women and one overweight man. The one thing I noticed is how sad and teary eyed they became when they started to describe their love life and how they wanted someone to love them for who they are no matter how big they were. They all verbalized how sad and lonely they were and so young, most in their mid 20's. Talk about what obesity does to our psychies. I think alot of them need some therapy to improve their self esteem. I also saw a major difference in their occupations compaired to the show with the size 2 women. The bigger women were waitresses and nannies etc, where the regular bachelor show with size 2 women were professional types. This is just an observation mind you but there has to be some sort of correlation there. Of all of the fats women on the show, I only noticed 2 that were professionals, a rocket engineer and a teacher and one or two other more technical or professional type career types. Not in the same league as in the other show. These women all were looking for someone to make them happy when they werent happy with themselves. Just mho.

I will watch for that show Ruthi. I know for me, losing weight has not improved my self esteem all that much. I can't wait to start therapy today.

Eh, on the shows I've seen, a lot of the women were pharmaceutical reps. Which is only vaguely professional ... iand there were a lot of barmaids and "models" and stuff like that.

You need to be able to take off from your job for a month or more for those shows and so that is going to skew what see there.

I watched it. There was definitely a lot of crying going on. It is so sad how many of us are judged by what is on the outside instead of the inside. Most of those woman were actually very attractive too. And, there were one or two that scared me as well, lol.

Which ones were scarey Susan, I thought the one with tatoos looked a bit different and the one that took a dip in the pool must have issues too.

The one that jumped in the pool. I can't believe he picked her to stay. I think she was looking for a way to make herself stand out, and I guess she succeeded.

I totally agree, she wanted to get his attention and she did. Makes me wonder what is next

Didn't catch it -- can't remember what we watched instead - but it wasn't that -- oh yeah, I think it was Big Brother ... something I still haven't figured out yet and which holds no interest for me at all - however Bearded enjoys it (for some reason).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
