Surgery date on April 12

Hi! Im new to this site and board and just wanted to introduce myself. I am 5 weeks from surgery and full of every emotion you can imagine. I cant believe this is actually going to happen! Hope to meet some people and hopefully share my good results with you all! Would love to hear from anyone, but especially hoping to hear from other guys. (Is there anything rougher than being a morbidly obese **** )

Welcome to the board Mark and Congrats on your surgery date. I hope all your weight loss dreams come true Kay 450/388/345/175

Welcome Mark!! It is tough being a obese gay man! But I will tell you, its great on the losing side..not only do I get the 'second looks' once in while now, some actually recognize me from my bigger days and will actually say something to me. Now, being the quiet reserved individual that I am, I would NEVER say something like 'why are you talking to me now when you wouldnt 8 months ago' Anyway, welcome to this board, its a great place for support and there are WONDERFUL people here!

Okay, I am NOT another guy but does being as tall as one somehow qualify me? Mark! I am very happy you are here and just as excited to meet you!!!
