Update about nothing
Jun 11, 2008
Nothing have really changed kind of at a stand still more so becuase i have went back to old habits of not working out and eat what I want it was alot easier with the new stomach becuase it stopped you from messing up. But I am going to get back up on this horse again becuase I come to far to mess up now so wish me luck and I need everybody's support.

6 Month Review
Aug 06, 2007
Last month I was 289 and as I returned for my 6 month appointment I weighed in at 288 I was so disappointed becuase I knew that I had been messing up for awhile I just didnt know it was going to be that bad, I was eating every 2 to 3 hours but they were all meals no snacks so I corrected my eating habits and went back the next week at 284, man I have to do better I now have to work out I am 30 to 40 pounds away from my ideal weight to close to slack off now

65 Days Post Op
Mar 17, 2007
I am now 65 days out and feel good and normal I can notice the weight loss in every part of my body, but not my mind yet. I last weighed myself 2 weeks ago and I was at 334 from 403 so I'm looking for about 100 more pounds to lose by next year. I no longer regret the surgery but it is still taken some getting use to I just had to change my focus from food to life and eat to live not live to eat.
10 day Post op check up
Jan 25, 2007
Appointment went still no pain he removed my tape and I feel like I lost my securtiy blanket becuase I am still afraid that I am going to hurt myself but I'm taking it one day at a time. I have to return to work 2/4/07 and my current weight is 366 so I'm down 20 pds since the surgery.
5 Days Post-Op
Jan 19, 2007
Well it's day number 5 and I feel better then some and worse than other no real pain sense the surgery just a lot of discomfort and frustration. I am sleeping pretty good sometimes better than before the surgery but I still cannot wait to move like a normal person, food doesnt even bother me anymore I am finally mentally where I need to be with food and I have to thank my 1000 calorie diet for that so now I have to make sure I eat although I do miss eating and will enjoy it again just not as much
Last Week with a old friend
Jan 10, 2007
My surgery has been approved everything is a go I am currently on my 1000 calorie a day diet until my surgery Monday January 15th, me and my stomach have been through a lot over the years and even though I have grown attached I am happy to say farwell. I am really nervous about how I will look and how I will feel and what changes will be made in my life becuase of my surgery maybe I can finally get enough confidence to do the things I have always wanted to do. SO this is farewell to swoll gut my good friend since high school but with all relationships from high school this too must end.
Second Meeting
Dec 26, 2006
Went pretty well got all my questions answered and I think I'm ready it still a little time away but closing rapidly. I stopped in the office to weigh myself and I gained 8 pounds I am now over 400 that's crazy I know me and my wife have been hitting our favorite restuarants kind of hard becuase were on our fairwell tour but 400 lbs that crazy, I remember a day long long long ago when I was 1/2 of 400 and was an adult I cannot wait until I can be me again.
