Paul, I am a lot like you. I was 379 when I had my surgery. I am not a binger but grazer, I can eat all day long but small amounts. My biggest problem was the larger I got the less energy which translated into less activity which translated into more weight. Now I have to make myself eat , it is hard sometimes to remember. I have more energy and I feel better. I have loss close to 50lbs since my surgery. Yes the surgery is a tool but a wonderful tool it is. I pray your that your surgery and recovery is swift, uncomplicated and successful. Lots of hugsssss!

<b>~*~I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all.~*~Hugs~*~</b>

Hello Paul - Enjoy your weekend get-away with your wife and congratulations on your upcoming bundle of joy (aka your 'lil tax deduction) ...I also wanted to say <b>Congratulations</b> on your upcoming weight loss surgery date!   You'll find the changes that follow, nothing short of a miracle. For 20 years I prayed and hoped for a "second chance" in life to be healthier and thinner - I never thought I would get that chance, but I did, and now <u>so will you</u>.  My humble advice?  Walk as much as possible after surgery.  As your body begins to heal make sure to get in your protein, even if it means plugging your nose and chugging back the protein drinks in baby [pouch] gulps.  Vitamins need to be chopped, minced or crushed... whatever it takes to get them in daily, no exceptions, YOU are worth it.   Also, let's not forget your new best(est) friend, water.  It is SO important to get your minimum 64 oz in daily. One final thing, remember to <b>CELEBRATE</b> all the special moments along the way, big or small.  Too many people only focus on the <i>number</i>, ie. pounds lost.  There are so many "moments" to look forward to and embrace - don't let any of them slip by.   Enjoy your new healthier life, you've earned it!!   <i>"The key to happiness is dreams, the key to success is making those dreams come true"</i>  Hugs and smiles -
