My testosterone levels dropped after WLS but there's pills for that. So, my wife says everything is more/bigger for me except I'm still only 5'2

I'm five years out and I don't remember anything like that with me. I had the energy boost. I just started exercising and never stopped.

Hello Everyone, I'm new to this forum but not to WLS. In September 2015, I'll be 6 years since WLS. I started a little less then 300 lbs at 5'2 wearing a size 48 in pants and I got down to 170 with the RYN procedure. Within the last five years I've gained back 15 lbs. which is Ok according to to my doctor. I'm currently in a size 34 pants, working towards a 32 by July 2015 which happens to my around my 50th birthday; OMG. During these five WLS years, with all the energy I have, I've gone back to school a earned both a MBA and a DBA (Doctorates in Businesses Administration). I currently have a full-time career at a nuclear disposal facility and two part-time jobs (evenings as an adjunct Professor teaching Computers and Business classes and a weekend job as a cashier at a local convenience/gas station). My workout consists of the elipical (30 min during lunch and late evening on week days) and playing racquetball (Wednesdays at 7pm and Saturdays at 10am). Here is where I answer "at night" to the question as to when I sleep. I'm looking for a support group for older men (like me) who is at their "maintained stage" of WLS. I believe support groups are very important. I'm also looking to find other men to encourage them on their WLS. I'll also help anyone who asks. Thanks RlopezNM
