I agree; it does seem like there's a disproportionate amount of women. Not sure why that is (maybe they carry their weight differently or place more value on their looks?) I was trying to talk my obese husband into considering these surgical options, but in spite of being miserable because of his weight, he won't bite. Oh well.

Best of luck to you getting a male cohort; perhaps one of the search filters or the mods could steer you in the direction of a male sleever?

Hey Bruce, that's O K, we'll talk to you. I also recommend the guys' forum.

[Who Dat 70461 331]

Plenty of guys on here...the ladies just talk more!

Guys' forum is probably the place to go if you have gender specific questions. However, if you're just curious about WLS in general, fire away!

Just looking for the male perspective. Thanks everyone,

I'm a guy so go ahead what's up?? What can I help you with

[Dallas_P 34]

I'd be glad to help as well. My surgery is July 31. Finished the liquid diet and just waiting for the end of the month to come.

4 weeks post op here, have zero regrets so far.

[Asdf12345 12]

I'm a guy. Right at 4 weeks post-op. My only regret is that I didn't do this fifteen years ago. What kind of questions do you have?

[Bob2013 326]

Yup lots of guys here. 7 months post op.

[Bruce Peter 39]

How do you guys cope with the loss of food as a "medication"? Do you find the restriction reduces that desire to cope by eating?

[rbedinghaus 4]

going on 4 weeks also so far so good
