Recommended Posts

Hello guys,

This forum is very warm becuase of all the feminane touch we have from the ladies around.

BUT

I was wondering how are the guys in here, if you are a man please reaply to this thread so we can know how many are here.

I'm curious, casue I have some (male only) questions that I wanted to ask, and did not feel comfortable posting it outloud.

Ask away, Brother!

For goodness sakes...for all of the bra, boob, pregnancy stuff we hear around here....we need a little more testosterone now and then. And so...I raise my Dewalt 24volt drill in the air and grunt. with my steel-toed boots stomping...ahw ahw ahw!!!

Welcome, friend!

I am a guy also, but what I have noticed is that alot of the guys do not post often. I post from time to time but come to the bb a few times a week. Of course there are exceptions to the rule but that is what I have found for the most part. See ya around!

Yes, we men should stand up and be counted - I didn't know what being in a minority felt like until I had my lap-band.

I haven't had any male-specific problems with the band, I have to say. Unless you count getting chest hair caught on the surgical tape. :)

So let me get this straight, this testosterone filled male with power tools wants _less_ talk about boobs!?

Just busting :)

I think we do need to hear more from the guys around here.

Me Paul, Big Man.

Eat meat, drink beer, take woman, hammer wood, hit other man, watch football on big screen.

Now, that's testosterone!

I like the boob talk too. What's the problem? I just don't like to hear them discuss their periods. Too much information for me.

I'm surprised that there's no men's forum here. Not that that we don't want you here, but it seems kind of hard for you to find each other in the vast universe of this community. Just as we have girl stuff you don't understand, I'm sure you have guy stuff that we don't understand. It would be nice if you had a special place where you could talk about those issues specifically.

Not that we wouldn't peek. LOL

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
