Week 24 Post-Op Update

Jul 28, 2011

Scale says 276 today but I expect to see 275 within the next two days. I'm happy to report that I'm still loosing weight, about 2-3 lbs a week on average now. I know it sounds kinda slow but some times the loss jumps to 3-4 lbs a week. But the average is about 2-3 lbs. Anyway, as much as I wish it were moving faster I really can't complain about the results. I feel so much healthier than I even expected. It's like I turned back time by 16 years! The only thing that sux are all of the aches and pains I have in my shoulder, back, knee, & hip from all the years of being in the super morbid category. The breaking news for this week though has to do with employment (I've been self employed for 12 years). It looks like I may be going back to work doing a somewhat physical job soon. If all goes well I'll be working for an oil company in New Mexico as part of a drilling team! So I'm really glad I had this VSG surgery! Without it I couldn't even have begun to consider a job like this!
Keep up the good fight OH friends!
Craig

UPDATE:
I did hit 275 the next morning and now have just 50 Lbs to go!! WOO HOO!
