Looking to just have another guy to talk to about WLS
My name is Johnathan, I'm 27 and live in the Atlanta,Ga area.
Im having the VSG on July 25th and am super excited and ready for this.
I was hoping to find either someone around Ga or anywhere really just to talk to for support, and just because we may have some things in common and would be nice to have someone go talk to as I go through this.
Look forward to hearing from some of you soon!

Johnathan, I'm not even close to GA and am on the West coast. But, very willing to talk about weight loss surgery and provide remote support.
I had RNY surgery Oct 2010. My highest weight was 310 lbs. My doctor's goal for me was 200 lbs and my goal was to reach 190 lbs. But, my body seemed to have a different goal and I now stay between 180-185 lbs. I can't complain about that.
I went from a 48" waist to 34".
I reached my goal weight in about 6 months.
There is also a Men's forum on this site and there's a lot of good info there. I know a couple of the guys that post there are gay because they also post here. But, I don't get the vibe that the Men's forum is gay friendly. But, they are a great source of info on WLS. And some of the guys there have had VSG.
Feel free to post here or send me a personal message on this site.
Bet you're getting excited for the 25th. Really wish I had done this when I was your age rather than spending my prime years as a fat man. Best of luck to you.
