Brad: It's refreshing to see a "younger male" speak about his experience. I normally see women online (no offense ladies), but I'm 31, and I have been looking for other males who have gone the distance and took the plunge to better their lives. W...

An absolutely incredible transformation. I concur with the previous poster that you look a lot younger now. You also look confident and happy. What a difference. Way to go!!!

I cannot eat any chinese food. At times beef can be a big NO NO! canned soup is okay if its not to salty. Sometimes I can eat something and then the next time It doesn't stay down. Don't know what happens.

Thanks for the advise. I have been trying the online dating scene and it hasn't worked well for me. I am not much of a bar person either so I just meet people through friends. I guess I just worry that they will stereotype me as being weak. You know most people think that all you ahve to do to loose weight is just put the fork down and that is easier said then done when you have battled obesity for a long period of time.

Thanks so much for the site!! It is wonderful. I have had lots of times when it would be nice to talk to someone that has or is going through the same things you are. My biggest issue right now is getting back into the dating game. I haven't dated in about 10 years and boy is it rough out there. It is very hard to go out to dinner with someone you have just met and explain that you truly just want a side salad and that you are full... LOL!! You all know what I am talking about LOL!!

Hey man, the protein supplements you recommended are awesome. And they don't taste too bad. Thanks for the advice, it has helped more than you know . . .

Watching the community grow.

It is so cool to see a community being formed organically. I haven't nor do I have the intention of trying to 'market' this site out to people. If you are considering the surgery or have had the surgery and this community has value for you, come on in. I enjoy watching as an outsider as relationships are being formed. It makes me feel good.

Thanks to everyone that is apart of this community!

The scale is going the other way! WTF?!

So I'm over a year now post surgery and have lost 115 pounds at the most. Well, the scale is starting to go back the other way. I was around 190 for a while (no big deal), now I got on the scale beginning of this week and I'm at 195. WHOA.

I think it's probably just good hard busting my ass to get going again because that has definitely slowed down partly laziness, partly I rolled my ankle. ALSO!!!!!!!!!! I've been partaking (overly so) in Starbucks lattes on a regular basis. I'm sure that isn'… Continue

We're creating a little community here, eh?

It's pretty awesome to see we already have 13 members on this network with very little effort and it's even cooler to see people making connections that wouldn't have without it. Again, if you can think of anyone, please invite them here and help this community grow!
