it has been a min since i posted. All is good. I am 118lbs down and feeling great. I started working out again and my strength  and everything is back. I am truly thankful for my new start on life. I have truly welcomed my lifestyle change. I hope all is well. I have posted new pics

It will be 6 month real soon since i had my surgery. I am feeling great and all is good. Coaching/chasing those kids around is helping the wieght fall off. I cant wait to get into the gym now. I have post updated pics. I hope everyone is doing well. All thanks to GOD. 

I know it has been a while since i posted. All is good and the scale is still moving down, just a little slower. As of today i have lost 86lbs. I have another 60 or so lbs to go. The other day i actually played basketball for the first time in years. I ran for straight games and was not that tired...lol It felt good to run with the boys againg without feeling like i was having a heart attack....It feels good when people notice the weight loss and give you encouraging words to keep going.

Well me and my daughter went to Burlington Coat Factory so i could get something to wear to church since everyone keeps telling me that my clothes are to big. I walk all the way to the back to the Big & Tall section to start looking. i found what i wanted so i grabbed it and went to the dressing room. Now i used to wear a size 54 waist and a 7X shirt (i like my shirts baggy...lol) so knowing that i have lost weight i grabbed a size 50 & 52 pants and a 6X shirt. % minutes later i was yelling to my daughter to bring me different sizes and we finally ended up with my size for now (46 waist & 4X shirt). I had to sit in the dressing room for a minute just to gather myself. My daughter was worried that something was wrong but i told her i was alright i just needed a minute. It is amazing how you are so accustomed to wearing the large clothes you cant picture yourself wearing the smaller stuff. I would have never thought to pick up a size 46 pants and i am sure i can wear a 3x shirt because i was told that it was to big but i like my shirts baggy Today being Monday i weighed myself and before surgery i was 410lbs today i am 355lbs . 

WEll today is the 20th so it officially 1 month since i had my surgery. I feel great and all is well. I have only had 1 minor problem so far. i weigh my self once a week on mondays. As of monday last week i was down a total of 37lbs from 411 to 374. i am getting more energy ever day and my clothes are starting to get baggy. my family is already telling me i need to buy more clothes but i am not going to waste the money right now , i will just keep burning holes in this belt for now. thanks to everyone who has sent me emails and responded to my questions. you have been a big help. i will post pics up very soon. i said i would not take a pic until my 1 month mark so i will take some today.
