I'm back and I have missed everyone.
on August 6, 2008 9:18 pm

What's up people?  I am almost six months out and I weigh 247lbs after starting at 404lbs.  I am so happy and life is great.  I just left Chicago last week and met DTray and DD(Dimple Donna) and had the time of my life.  I walked the city like a mad man and was never tired.   WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy and I have no regrets.  My only and largest regret is that I have been away for so long and lost contact with great people.  Well I will check in with more regularity and keep everyone abreast of what's going on in my life.  The church is going good and we are growing at such a rapid rate.  God has truly been good to me and the family.  Here are a few pics from Chicago.  Be blessed until the next time.

one month post op update
on March 13, 2008 7:00 am

I went to the doctor on yesterday evening for my 1 month post op checkup.  Here are the results.  My vitamin levels were perfect with the exception of my iron.  So I will start an iron supplement on this week.  My weight went from 404lbs to 338lbs, for a total of 66lbs loss in one month.  Dr. Hoehn says that is a record for his practice and he is totally impressed.  I give God all the glory, he has given me a second chance at life and I am determined to stay focused and on the right track. I am so excited and I am now adding working out into my routine.  Continue to pray for me and as always I lift up every person on OH to the Lord.

God is in the healing business.
on February 28, 2008 9:15 pm
Where do I start?  On Monday, I woke up and was getting ready.  All of a sudden a case of the bubble guts came up.  To my suprise my comode was full of blood.  This happend four, Yes 4 more times that morning.  I then passed out and my lovely wife called 911 and I woke up in the hospital.  I then had 2 blood transfusions and on Tuesday I found out I had 2 ulcers on the staple line of the pouch.  This happens on 5% of all surgeries.  So eventually they stopped bleeding that day and they kept me one more night for observations.  On Wednesday my blood count was low.  So they gave me 2 more transfusions and sent me home.  I am truly blessed and I know that God is a healer.   I realize the enemy attacked my body and once again Jesus came on through and touched this body.  I will still have the Grand Opening of our church Restoration Temple on this Sunday and will proclaim that Jesus is Lord and tell of his goodness.  This is the only reason I haven't been on line to holla at yall is because I was down for a minute.  But I am back.   Check for new photos some time this weekend.   Be blessed and remember when you can't Jesus can.

one week and 2 day check up
on February 20, 2008 12:36 pm
Okay, take a seat and hear this.........are you ready?  
The day of surgery your boy was 404lbs according to the doctors records.  Last friday(4 days post op) I went in to have my drain pulled out and I weighed get this 369lbs.   I was so happy I didn't know what to do.  So today I go in to have my staples removed and they weighed me again and the scale said 358lbs. A brother almost passed out.  This tool is a bad boy.  I am so energetic and I can't wait to see what the month holds for me.  I am eating right, getting my protein in, and drinking a ton of water.  I feel great and I don't know what to do with myself.  My wife, kids, and co-workers say I am disappearing fast.  This is down right exciting.  I thank God because everything He does He does it well, and I could be dead, stricken with all manner of diseases, but God.   I am now officially off of blood pressure medicine and that was enough to cut a step.  I am still in amazement,  I will be putting some new photos up in a few days and then you can tell me if you see the difference.  I will holla at yall later.
