Aussie, I am 33 and am single. Was sleeved 2 weeks ago. I'm in your boat, sister! Cant wait to see what the future brings!! Bring it on, right?!

But yeah, I mean I'll admit it scares me. I did this for ME and my son.. but you KNOW in the back of my mind I'll always think the chances after surgery to meet a decent guy should be better! Ya know? And what if they're not? A total disappointment. We shall see....

Congratulations on your new man!

I too hope to have as much fun. Not sure I am that young, wish I had done it a few years ago now (but I chickened out then, this time I am very sure)

But I guess you are never too old to fall in love.

hey you are more than 20 years younger than me. you have plenty of time to find a wonderful man. Losing weight opens up a whole new world, so be picky!

dunno if i wanna meet someone this soon yet, but gonna stay in here and read through some things.

but i do want to get back into the dating scene, so i'm excited about that. would be nice if there were a site for WLS patients to date etc.

I will be sleeved on 10/29 and I am also single. In the past my self esteem has been non-existant and dated all the wrong guys. Im hoping one day I will have confidence and a nice guy.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
