hi there!!! are there really gay people here?!?!?!?

[ThomSB 0]

Related to the question about whether or not to tell people about my surgery...my thought is this: extreme weight loss in an out gay man can lead to some seriously inaccurate assumptions.

Nope. Not cancer.

Nope. Not AIDS.

"I had a sleeve gastrectomy."

Haven't been ready to post on FB yet. Really don't want to have to reply to all the How-are-you-doing...need-anything lovely comments and concerns. Cuz while they try...well...One friend who knew I was having surgery Monday offered to bring me dinner this week. Sweet. But no.

But I think the next week or two...

I only told my partner and one other friend who is also considering surgery. Unfortunately I think there is still a lot of stigma attached to WLS. So I chose to keep it to myself.

Hi! Now for a huge giggle! I came to the site forgetting that I had a login (had to make up a new one since I couldn't remember my password!) and then found this forum again only to discover this thread that I started in 2010!!! Rock on!

So, yeah. Finally had my surgery 1/10/11! HW 266, SW 260, CW 149. Have maintained 149 w 1-2 lb regain every so often. I am truly the "if I can do it . . . " maxim!

Nice to be back!!! Ann

Looks like no one has posted her for a while, but I thought I'd "come out" on this thread and find some gay sleeve buddies!

Hello everyone, my name is David and I'm from the suburbs of Philly. I had Realize Band surgery 4 years ago and I have lost 90+ lbs, but I am going to revise to the VSG at the end of this year/beginning of 2015 (assuming that my insurance company approves the revision). Just figured I'd say hello.

Hi everyone. New to the group! I'm got sleeved in on June 4 and have lost 69 lbs so far. Couldn't be happier. I want to thank my partner of 15 years for supporting me through my journey. It's so nice to read all of the positive posts from our community! Keep up the hard work everyone!
