Oh Mike -
you are amazing.

Not only are the photos jaw-dropping, but your story is so real.
You know what strikes me most?

How unhealthy you looked at your pre-op weight.
How much you looked like a ticking time-bomb.
And you've already changed SOOOOO much - it's the best thing you ever did for yourself.

Now you have a chance at a normal life.
(as if you would ever really want to be normal!!!)

Awesome Myke, truly AWESOME!

You are an inspiration, I have followed your story as you have gone along here and I am humbled by what you have accomplished in such a short time!

I am nearly a year out and 160 lbs lighter then I was and your story has been a source of inspriation for me when I have struggled!

Wowza!!  And I thought my pic post showed a difference!  I'd bet people pass you on the street and don't recognize you!

Now, shave off all that nasty facial hair... ;0)
