Single guys?

I have a friend on here that is dating a woman who had WLS and they are finding a lot in common. It might be a good idea.

I dated a guy who also had WLS. It made the eating part easier but my current beau is just a 'naormal' eater and we regularly share when we eat out because truth is, portions are way too big. It really depends on the guy. If he's one of the good ones, it won't matter.

Yeah I want to try it out. It's like more of an understanding between each other because we know how hard it is for everything.

Hahaha yeah, I got out of a relationship with a guy that I was dating before my surgery and then dating after and it seems like he was disinterested and he always told me I was getting too skinny. And he never understood what I was going through with anything nor did he make changes with me or for me. We ate out too often and he never picked the best places. I feel like having this on common would be such special bond and we could support each other with all of the life changes.

I think its a good idea.. I guess alot go through this process alone to have someone that really understands and helps as well as you help them. I think builds a really strong bond...

@@kelseynicole20 - With whole internet world strange niche perversions keep popping up, there probably are people who really like loose skin...so if anyone is "really out there" and edgy, I'd be curious to see if there is a market. ;-) sort of.

The problem with dating sites is numbers and traffic. It takes a big bunch of people to make it viable. Maybe personal ads on this site might be a better way to go. I'd start, but I'm starting to get serious about someone at the moment.

@@Daveo - Dude, do the math, half of the population is below average. That's why this a numbers game. It takes on average for me:

15 emails before I get a response

1 of 5 of those who I am in email communication with result in a coffee date

2 of those 5 get a real date

so I've gone out on 20 real dates over the last three months, and finally found two I was very serious about...one I had to say no to, but one I'm now getting VERY serious about.

See what I mean, its a numbers game?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
