Hey Guys & Gals

Just thought id get on here and say Hello and let yall know that Im doing good I uploaded plenty of new pictures from the professional photoshoot I had done in september
The pictures are really good and as I sit here and look back on my previous photos I see I have truly changed

I notice more changes than just body weight when I look in the mirror I dont down myself anymore I look in the mirror and see a new confident me. When going out to eat I know longer watch people to see if there looking at me or watch them to see if there laughing at me

I have finally gotten to the point in my life where I dont have to care about what others think the only thing that matters is that I love myself and the people that love me love me 2

Me as a whole has changed I now can be myself I can make everyone laugh and smile with my jokes and not have to be worried about being judged and being called the fat funny kid
Instead of sitting on the sidelines watching at a party I now am the party I now run the party and I am the life of it

This surgery has truly changed me and It will continue to be my story of success for years to come

I may have some very rough times but I can honestly say being at the top of this mountain is wonderful and I wouldnt go back to being the old me for nothing

Much Love
Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas
Matthew Ryan

Also wanted to talk about what happend
 this past weekend i was at a grill out and i had just got finished eating and my heart started racing.

I sat down and waited it for it to slow down but it didnt so i decided i was going to the emergency room.

I got there my heart rate was 201 WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I stayed in the hospital since saturday night at 10pm till today

They said i had a case of A-FIb its is where one chamber of the heart beats faster than the other and you risk getting possible blood clots and circulation problems.

After checking my heart and giving me meds the doctor confirmed there is nothing wrong with my heart.

I am currently taking Rhythmol™ a medication for my heart so it wont happen again hopefully it wont but thank god there is nothing structurally wrong with my heart

Other than that things are really going great
Until next time everyone have a happy turkey 

Love Matthew

Hello Everyone,

It is now eight weeks since my RNY that was done on September 10th

I am down 68 pounds and feeling wonderful.

For anyone who doesnt know the week before last I went into the doctor for a simple procedure called an EDG they supposedly run a light down your throat into your tummy to check it.

I have been having problems eating food and swallowing and stuff.

Well anyways when they ran that light down they noticed my small intestine was closed up kinda tight.

So the doctor inserted a ballon to open it up when he did the balloon busted and caused an adhesion in my lower intestine.

I had to stay in the hospital four days but Im still holding on.

I feel alot better besides the gas pain that is about really all I had.

I am glad to be home and feeling alot better 

Thank God for having such a wonderful doctor and such a good medical staff to take care of me.

So far so good only god know what is in store for me

So until later on 

Im out

Love Matthew

I am updating you guys since i havent been on in about a week

I am down 35 pounds as you can see from my ticker and i am doing just fine

Also this coming up monday i am one month post op and not a single complication

The only thing that i am really having trouble with is getting in all the liquids


Also im not that hungry to often either

Other than that i am truly blessed

I thank god for bringing me this far.

He really has brought me a long way

Thanks to everyone for reading dont be afraid to drop in and say hello by the way

God Bless U all

This surgery has truly been a blessing to me.

Yesterday i got on the treadmill and walk walk walked

and i walked 35 minutes that is one whole mile

I am so proud of myself i never thought i could walk a whole mile without getting tired or my leg cramping

The last time i attempted to i was at the heart doctor and i could only walk 2 minutes

So you see what a difference 20 something pounds makes it makes a big difference

Im 9days post op today and feeling great no more pain and im doing awesome

Also i went and weighted in at the pharmacy

According to there scale i have lost 24 pounds
I dont know if its right or not but i will take it as it is

Wow

This surgery was truly a blessing
