i'm excited to finally almost be at the ins submission stage and hopeful that things will got thru!!!

i'd love to hear from other friendly folks. everyone is so nice here!!!

do you find issues related to your glbt-hood and the forum or reaction from friends???

so happy to be here!!!!!! xoxoxoxo Ann

Hi Jonathan

I would consider joining would be good to talk to other men about our surgery and progress.

Just to make it clear to Any female persons reading this I enjoy seeing their post but I would like to see more men post so we can compare

I agree. Having a breakout space would be cool. I've never used Google groups (I don't think)...is it easy to use?

Lol I don't think having more men post is a problem. This thread is mostly men. I've decided I must be one of the very few "token lesbians" on VST.

I don't necessarily mean more men but ONLY men lol. Somewhere where we can talk about anything!!

Yea it'll be easy

I just wanted to post and say that I'm not "really gay," but my brother, my aunt and several of my very close friends are. I think it's great that everyone is here to post and support each other. I'm sorry that no one ever finished the story, I was excited to see where it went.

Good luck and CONGRATULATIONS to all of you! Both in WLS & family, bear, etc. stuff. I'll be checking back for that story...

lesbian here too!!!! Just more of a stalker on here cause don't see very many posts from the ladies!!! but have enjoyed the bear stories and non bear ones also

@beachlover: I LOVE your little hat in your pic. Next pic should be same hat but with a giant smile.

once upon a time there was a guy who hid in the closet and gained a lot of weight... oh heck I don't remember it all but it was starting to go somewhere and then it stopped.

Yeah, there aren't many of us here. We just kind of lurk in the background on this thread. But that's ok, I support the boys too. : )
