Road Trip-Never Would Have Been Possible 250 lbs Ago.
I am beginning to notice that I am different, more mobile, more confident, better looking, healthier, happier. People treat me differently which gives me mixed emotions, but life is good.
To the pre-ops who always ask if VSG works for high BMI, or if you have regrets, or if you can be successful with this or that issue; well, you probably know how I feel.
If I could post pix with my iPad, I would put a couple of me next to my buddy's kick-ass bus, because I no longer avoid cameras.

Now you got me wishing I went to Frankenmuth. I missed going for my B-day this year as I was only a couple months out. Not sure if I could get any chicken down yet. I used to get a case of wine every time I went. At 555 I don't even think I could have fit thru the door of my old RV, I had butt issues at 250.
Haven't seen you so much on the forum lately-oh, ya, it's because you're out and about and living life- and doing it well, it sounds like. Life IS GOOD- amen. Love hearing from you.
