Butterthebean 8,146 Posted November 25, 2013 Btw Butter, one of my good friends decided to have the sleeve...he was totally convinced when I showed him your before and after pics. He had his surgery last Monday and is doing really good. Just wanted to let you know that you've inspired someone you don't even know:) Well that is awesome. Had I known I could have sent him all my transition clothes that I bought and then got too small for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fluffnomore 1,235 Posted November 25, 2013 I'm still in the head that I don't quite believe transition clothes are a thing. As in, I'll never transition in or transition out. I did break down and give away a suit and two dresses this weekend to a friend. Progress... 1 gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReDbEaN 654 Posted November 25, 2013 My wife's people live up north of Alexandria where the churches and fried turkeys run rampant and sensibility has been outlawed. My tiny martial victory is that I don't have to go there for both thanksgiving and Xmas. I'd rather go turkey day and stay home Xmas but I get outvoted on that every year. But either way I get gumbo. Gumbo will make up for a lot ;-P I have friends in Alexandria/Pineville. I'm closer to Baton Rouge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReDbEaN 654 Posted November 25, 2013 Well that is awesome. Had I known I could have sent him all my transition clothes that I bought and then got too small for. He's doing so good! I measured his neck yesterday and it was down 1 1/4 inches from the week before!! Wow! 1 Butterthebean reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't care for the small towns...and the politics in those towns?!? Urgh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Butterthebean 8,146 Posted November 25, 2013 Lol. You must know my FIL then. Fundamentalist southern baptist preacher AND a politician. Every time I step foot in his house I feel like I just traveled back in time 75 years. My only clue that's it's all real is Fox News playing on a continuous 24 hour loop on the tv. The only other show he gets is gunsmoke. 1 M2G reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gamergirl 4,610 Posted November 25, 2013 Yep....I knew I dated one for a while. You just described her perfectly. This is wrong on so many levels....including the fact that it made me snort while laughing.... 2 ReDbEaN and sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Butterthebean 8,146 Posted November 25, 2013 Am I the only one that ate Peanut Butter and honey sandwiches daily? 2 sophiepants and Chelenka reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5.0junkie 770 Posted November 25, 2013 Am I the only one that ate Peanut Butter and honey sandwiches daily? No you're not. My dad would make us those with crunchy peanut butter but he would add a banana. That's how his grandmother made them for him. 2 Chelenka and sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmandaRaeLeo 2,146 Posted November 25, 2013 Have to throw in my childhood weird sandwich. Butter and sugar on white bread. <br> There's no wonder I got fat. Me too, only we toasted the bread. Oh and my recent pre-sleeve vice? Honey butter and Nutella on toast. So totally yummy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
