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....

I was sleeved on Sept 11th... Yesterday was my 14th day! I started at 300 lbs and lost 11 pre-op and then 7 after week 1. I'm expecting it will slow down a lot... I had my surgery by Dr. Salcone at Our Lady of Lourdes in Camden, NJ... He has been AMAZING!!!

Congrats on your surgery and progress man! I'm from NJ as well (piscataway)

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!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
