Lets try this again ... New to this forum
Welcome to the locker room. Lot of good info/advise here and a few laughs thrown in just to keep things interesting.
Work is for those who don't know how to fish.

The way some of the women fight about who's surgery is best just does not make sense to me. All I really care about is that all the guys here are happy with their choice of surgery. I think that they type of surgery that a person chooses is very personal and what is right for one person is not right for another (just like I don't think that WLS is right for every obese person). I just want people to be successful in their weight loss and to live a healthy life.

Yeah. Carlos....I think that the DRAMA is best left on other boards....we've - us guys here - are quite aware of the fighting/ranting/name calling/my op is better'n yours fights that occur on almost ALL of the boards...and we're for the most part ignoring same.
Group here is pretty solid. We've some guys who've been a vibrant part of our support team for years and brand new guys too....but the major part to remember is we're guys, with male issues, male opinions and male-ness in general.
A look back thru the days gone by might show you that occasionally, a woman does come into the Locker Room, and that sometimes causes a "tempest in a tea pot" - but for the most part, we're here alone....and I think (IMHO) that's a good thing.
Oh, take the link here - http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/bigal2029_group/ - join our MENS ONLY board too...bigAl runs it and it's for men only and he'll vet you and we post there also, but quite privately...
So welcome brother!
