Thursday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

George, Have the Greatest Ever on the 13th!!! It’s good to see more guys out here on Obesity Help. We make up a small minority of the people having Weight Loss Surgery, but tend to lose down quicker and with fewer hassles than the women due to Male Physiology. Drop by the "Men's Message Board" at- http://www.obesityhe lp.com/forums/men/ -to see how other Guys are doing with their surgeries. A lot of info and advice specifically tailored to Men. I’m just dropping by to let you know that there’s a huge crowd of strangers out here pulling for you and holding you in our prayers. May you have a famously successful surgery and a record-breaking recovery! Be nice to the nurses, Enjoy the drugs when you can, and most importantly, hurry home and start walking away from those pounds and into a new Life! Best Wishes-

Still going strong

I don't know if anyone really reads this stuff, but it has been a pretty good week. Went to the doc for weigh in to make sure the liquid diet is working. All systems are go. I have stuck pretty good to the liquid diet. I have cheated two times, but it was so minimal. Twice, I ate one inch off a slice of Swiss Cheese. I LOVE Swiss Cheese. Anyway, I have lost 22 lbs as of yesterday (12/6).

I weighed myself when I first started this diet and weighed 359.5, Yesterday I was 337.5. That is remarkable in itself.
