Roll Call...

Hi Guys/Gals What is your plans for the weekend? I have a pretty laid back one as the husband and kids are off until a week on Monday....I have a lot of cleaning to do and I also want to shop for some vacation clothes! Yippee. I just started tanning and decided today I might tape my boobs together so I tan under my arms and not end up with big white spots from where my boobs lie when I am on my back. Well here are my questions for today! 1. Do you take more pictures of yourself since surgery? Family or alone? 2. Do you measure yourself and what is the one place you lost the most inches? 3. Did your sex/love life change and did it change for the better? (a little riskee) 4. What is your favorite candy bar before surgery and your favorite treat now? Have fun.... Hugs Chris

Here are my answers.... 1. Do you take more pictures of yourself since surgery? Family or alone? I do take more pictures of myself because I do the monthly comparisons...I also take more of me and the kids...John is not into having his picture taken at the moment.... 2. Do you measure yourself and what is the one place you lost the most inches? I measure myself monthly and have lost 20 inches in the boobs as well as 20 inches in the butt...... 3. Did your sex/love life change and did it change for the better? (a little riskee) My sex/love life has always been good...since weightloss it has changed a little..in the beginning we had sex more often because I think I felt sexier...now it is not as often and I think it is because of me. I have lost some of my drive but when we do it is still good so not sure why? (I know too much info) why not be honest though? 4. What is your favorite candy bar before surgery and your favorite treat now? My favorite candy was chocolate covered cherries but now my favorite treat is sugar free cookies....Yum Thanks Anna she put me on to peanut butter ones... Hugs and love, Chris

Thanks for doing the roll call. I got a late start this morning. Was up half the night working on the women's bath in the cafe. When I get it done I will post a pic. It is a lot of hand detail work. 1. Do you take more pictures of yourself since surgery? Family or alone? I TAKE MORE PICS, BUT ONLY BECAUSE I NEED TO REASURE MYSELF THAT I AM NOW A "HOTTIE" 2. Do you measure yourself and what is the one place you lost the most inches? I DO TAKE MY MEASUREMENTS, BUT DIDN'T AT THE BEGINNING. BUT I THINK I'VE LOST THE MOST IN MY WAIST. 3. Did your sex/love life change and did it change for the better? (a little riskee) SEX LIFE? WHAT'S THAT. DON'T HAVE ONE, HAVEN'T FOR YEARS. MY HUBBY IS ELDERLY AND ILL. CAN'T TAKE ANY OF THE VIAGRA TYPE MEDS DUE TO HIS HEALTH AND HIS HEALTH PROBLEMS PREVENT SEX LIFE IN THE OLD PRE-ILLNESS WAYS. YOU DEAL. (I know tmi) 4. What is your favorite candy bar before surgery and your favorite treat now? NOT A CANDY FAN, JUST A SALT AND GREASE FAN. Hazel

Good morning, Chris and Hazel! You guys are early birds this morning. Tomorrow I think we are going to go to the Mardi Gras parade it's a big deal here it's the second biggest Mardi Gras the only one bigger is in Louisianna. It will be freezing so I'll be dressed like an eskimo. lol The rest of the weekend will be lazy. 1. Do you take more pictures of yourself since surgery? Family or alone? I take more only to post on here! 2. Do you measure yourself and what is the one place you lost the most inches? I did not measure myself before nor have I measured myself since surgery. If I would have to guess where I'd lost the most it's probably in either the bust or butt area. 3. Did your sex/love life change and did it change for the better? (a little riskee) It changed a little. Weight didn't stop us. LOL know I'm just a bit more flexible ;) 4. What is your favorite candy bar before surgery and your favorite treat now? Snickers before surgery... Now probably the sf peanutbutter wafers. Your welcome Chris Hugs, Anna

HI!!! here are my answers!!! 1. Do you take more pictures of yourself since surgery? Family or alone?

YES!!! it has changed a lot... My sex drive is much higher and I am able to do and to offer things that before the surgery were out of the question... I feel really happy now... I am able to hug my wife after everything happened and take time to just share sweet time. Before surgery I finished in the same way as finishing a marathon and not able to offer pampering or sweet time... I just needed air... LOL 4.
