female only This May Be Inappropriate, Forgive Me :)

Lissa- Awe Thank You so much. I do feel better about my loss now I tend to look at things in a negative way instead of positive when it comes to myself. I know it's bad, but low self esteem and being overweight my whole life has done that to me. Actually I have allowed that to do it to me.

I've been feeling BLAH too because I can hardly eat. I have about 2 oz and I'm done. I feel Neaseous right after and I don't eat for the rest of the day. I am only getting about 20oz of liquid a day. I keep asking myself, will I ever be able to eat more than 2-3 oz a day ever?

What does your meal plan look like at 9 months out?

Sorry I've been rambling on :-(

Someone should do a study on this. I'm thinking we would need a pre-op test & 3-6-9-12month post op tests.

I feel we could really do a service for our fellow man. Poeple want answers.

I posted this in the other as well:

Actually, the inside WILL change. At least according to my gyno.

I went in for my first pap, I am only 20, and we talked about my surgery. She mentioned that larger women have more narrow vaginal canals because all the fat pushing in on it. She asked me about 100 times if I was sure I wasn't a virgin (really awkward). She said once I lose most of my weight it will widen a bit but not much. She said it probably wouldn't be noticeable to a partner but I may notice less discomfort, which I do have sometimes.

I call that the FUPA..fatty upper ***** area...and I have already lost some weight in that area so I think u will prolly too.

Pinky, I can eat almost anything at this point. My "meal plan" consists of 70 grams of Protein per day and 64 oz of Water. I eat foods that help me reach that target.

Breakfast is usually a Protein Bar and a mini babybel. lunch can be anything. I go in phases, today I had some chicken wings cooked in the toaster oven, about 5 IIRC. dinner, I haven't thought about yet. I usually do some lunch meat rolled up with cheese or I'll eat some version of a frozen entree like chicken or shrimp. I do a lot of stir fry with chicken or steak fajita meat and a little bit of frozen veggies. And, I'm constantly drinking Water, Decaf tea, etc.

Work on your water. You need it more than Protein early post-op. Getting dehydrated is a much bigger danger than malnourished right now.

To stay on topic, I'm kegeling!

Why would there be offense? This is a very valid question. Dr oz said men gain an inch for every 30 lbs they lose. Girls gotta right to know how Weightloss will effect the hoohaa

[alliegb3 112]

Of course I'm sure men were much more enthused to measure

Seriously? that means when I get to goal I'll gain 13 inches..(400/30}..that can't be right, that would put me in the guiness book of world records for sure. Lmao

Ooh, when my Hubby had bypass I heard (and saw..... he was very proud) how he was "growing". I have to admit, it is amazing how much the men can change. I never even THOUGHT that I could change? After a month out of surgery all I have figured out is "carnal relations" (thank you Big Bang Theory) is easier. Can't wait to keep figuring out these changes. Thanks for the laugh!

I believe the consensus in the Man's Room was that there is a limit to how much length men gain.

*Running away now!* (have to admit it was an interesting discussion though!)
