July 15 - Independence Day

Jul 03, 2016

July 15, 2016 - my VGS surgery date - Independence Day for Rosco104.  It's been 23 years since I've been free.  23 years of smiling when I was sad.  23 years of short term weight loss following the quick fix programs.  But now I say give me liberty or give me death!  Okay forget the death part, I hope the surgery goes well.  I do look at this as gaining independence to get my health back where it once was.  My surgeon is like the French were to the United States during the Revolutionary war.  The French gave us aid to fight, but, we were the ones who had to do the fighting.  My surgeon will give me aid, a tool to help me fight this battle I've been loosing for 23 years.  Afterwards, it will be up to me to hold fast and do the things that must be done to achieve victory.  I'm sure there will be battles that I will not win and that's okay as long as I win the war.

I've always been a loner and have never been a fan of support group.  But, this time I need help.  I hope to become friends with those of you who have just declared their independence, those of you who are battle hardened with years of experience, and those who have achieved victory.  Oh yea those of you who know how to eat right, get rid of indigestion, know of a good cook books for Sleevies and a myriad of other topics.

NOTE:  My grammer is like my fitness...not so good but I hope you can forgive.

Post you later,
