Hey all! It's really cool to find that there is a forum for gay men and women on here! I would love to hear more from all but especially from gay men around my age... I came out very late in life and didn't start dating until 10 years after I came out... Weight has always played a big part in my esteem and dating life... You can also find me on My Fitness Pal at sjmusicalman103....

You will find the changes in weight have a huge impact on your self-esteem and the attention you get from my experience. Like the others have said, stick with your Protein and fluids, and rely on your fellow sleevers for support....its a great community!
