Question:

hi iam looking for a gal who has had the surgery as i did whocan truly understand what we are going through to date as freinds first and possibly a long term relationship leading to marrige does this site have a after surgery meeting section where those who had the surgery can connect at least by email to start relationships — Kenneth B.

Interesting question Kenneth, and not a bad idea. Of the many OSSG lists,
nothing fits this bill (OSSG singles seems to have pooped out and
concentrating mostly on a trip to Cancun). Why don't you start an OSSG
list yourself & invite everyone or see if Eric has an interest in
adding it to this site. I know on my favorite list,
[email protected] we do plenty of kidding about finding people of
the opposite sex after surgery, what will people think of our saggy skin
pre-plastic surgery, etc. There is definitely gold to be mined here. Get
going. My surgery is in Oct., so I'll be checking in after the first of
the year. Make me a match!

Like some have suggested, go to group :) But, be careful not to appear to
be preying on people. My group specifically discouraged this, so that
people would feel safe to discuss feelings openly. Perhaps if there is
someone in your group who you feel you may have something in common with,
you might ask her to coffee :) Good Luck!

P.S. you might also suggest In Group that if there are any singles
interested in socializing you'd like to get something going! Lots of clubs
in Lauderdale to go dancing and such!

What an interesting idea. I like the possibilities. I just had my surgery
a little over 2 weeks ago, so I am still on liquids. Its hard I really
want to eat. I live in Anchorage Alaska so I am almost as far away as you
can possibly get. My e-mail address is [email protected] if you would
like to correspond back and forth. Good luck on your search.

What a great idea. My first consult with the surgeon is in 6 days. I was
just talking with a good friend about how dating when I lose the weight
will be different, and how to get someone to understand the choices I make
(most people are dead set against the surgery... I feel I'm dead without
it). This can be a potentially big issue for many.
