Chris Jordan
My name is Chris Jordan and I'm a 32 year-old programmer from Mansfield, Texas.
At my heaviest, I weighed 274 pounds. On my first visit to Dr. Ihde (pronounced eye-dee) I weighed in at 263 pounds -- that's about average for me. That was in November of 2007 a week or so before Thanksgiving.
I had my surgery just last Wednesday -- that's January 30th 2008, for when this gets old ;o) -- and as of today (02/03/08) I weigh 248 pounds. I'm still on a clear liquid diet, and I'm counting the seconds until I can start eating "real food" again.
