Looking for men in their 20's
OK - now get your minds outta gutter!!!!!
My son is 21 and is having a tough time finding someone his own age who understands what it's like to be morbidly obese.
I am almost 19 months post op - but it's hard for him to relate because
1 - I'm his mom
2 - I'm a 42 yo woman
3 - I'm his mom
4 - EWWWWW I'm a girl
5 - I'm his mom
If there's a kind soul out there who would lend a hand. Please feel free to email him. He's listed here as Topher215. or you can email him @ [email protected]
Guys - Please help! He's a great kid, man - ok he's my baby and I don't want to see him suffer.
Thanks!

I'm a 28 year old guy who is two and a half months post-op from lap Rouex-N-Y...I love to talk to pre-ops, and would love to talk to your son too...Please let him know that he can communicate me through my profile here: obesityhelp.com/member/goheels or my personal email [email protected] and of course we all strongly encourage him to lurk around or participate in the locker room here or the weight loss surgery in your 20's room, personally I prefer this room though because it is uniquely taylored to a guys perspective...Oh yeah, and tell him I drive a Ram 4x4 too...
heres a link for the WLS in your 20s forum. he'll find friends there going throught the same
things. he's welcomed here too we don't discriminate
Good Luck

I like 42 year olds, I'm not in my 20's but feel I'm competitive with them in the left brain side so....tell him to hang tough. But I would recommend him not to become morbidly obese, not fun.
To everyone who has posted! Thanks - this is what I love about OH - you post - someone, many someones come right back to help....
I just called Christopher and he's coming over so we can sit down and I can show him this forum.
RE: the WLS in your 20's - from what I've seen - it's almost all WOMEN! While I'm sure he'd love nothing more than to be the center of attention in a room full of women. He needs a safe male bonding area. I've already emailed Eric - the founder of this site to see if he can add additional filters for men in their 20's....
Please post to his profile - @ 6'1" @ 360. He's got an BMI of 47.4 (extremely obese). He's got sleep apnea, dermatalogical skin issues and is genetically predisposed to Type II Diabetes.
Thanks again Guys!!!!
