Hello Splatt, as mentioned in this thread, being shy is not a good reason for not posting in the lady's room, but rather, it is against our guidelines. Note the stickies at the top of the Lady's and Men's forums:

I was implying that he shouldn't be shy in general. It had nothing to do with him posting in the ladies forum

It would appear you have missed the point ... and the context.

No, don't worry plumb. No confusion. We had some problems a couple years ago with folks making inappropriate comments in each other's forums, so it was decided to try to police them a bit before things get elevated to an uncomfortable level. Just like this post:

http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/304474-average-weight-loss-during-first-2-weeks-guys-only-please/

Men and women should feel they have a safe place to post gender specific questions. As a host here at BariatricPal, it is my job to remind folks to be aware of what forum they are in and to respect the guidelines.

No drama.

Hope you are doing well today.

I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable. I have seen males post responses about issues regarding pregnancy, sex, and other feminine issues so I thought it was okay. I never intended to be raunchy or insensitive. When I said men would be excited to hear that side effect I really did mean it. I mentioned it to my husband (who is on the fence about WLS) and he got excited because he'd never heard about that side effect since I'm a woman and only talk about how it effects my body. I didn't mean to make u feel disrespected. Again I'm very sorry.

I really would like it if the ladies stayed out of this room. I try not to get too involved in their women's issues. I think it only fair that they do the same.

So it's been 6 months and I'm down 95 LBS and I'm no longer a type 2 diabetic and I don't take any meds any more !! I went down from a size 42 pants to a size 32 , and I now wear a small / med , shirt now. ,, I work out almost everyday , I run a 3 mile fitness trail in homdel park in New Jersey , and do weight lifting / and also swim laps , it's very hard work but I do not have any of that saggy skin I feel great !! And I'm starting to look great I think I'm starting to see some ab muscles ,WOW, but I said it before and I'll say it again none of that tops the fact that my ""penis"" has tripled in size !!!! Well just. Giving an up date !! I hope you'll and doing as well as I 'em I still haven't told everyone that I hade the sleeve done I guess it's cause I'm still worried that I will fail and it would look like I had this done for nothing

The information is readily available that for every 30-35 pounds a guy looses he should gain an inch in length. Here's one such link http://www.oprah.com/health/Paging-Dr-Oz.

The way I look at it, I'm planning to loose 150 pounds, that's 5 more inches...imagine what that'll do for my self-esteem! :rolleyes:

I am torn on this women posting thing. On the one hand it bugs me that some don't seem to think the rules apply to them. On the other hand, I think it is rather naive to think that women aren't going to read threads from this room so what does it matter if they post as well.

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
