I am officially down 200 pounds as of yesterday.

I went to the doctor to see if I had a blockage, turns out I have 2 bleeding ulcers from eating to much salsa.

The good thing is I got some meds that made me feel better and they weighed me and I was like Yay!!!!!!!, I was down 200 pounds from a year ago.

Well, I am hoping to lose at least 25 more and see if I can maintain 200 lbs if my surgery will allow me to slow down.

I don't post a lot on this thing, so here we go. I had surgery on the 8th of April 2009, I am officially down from 425 to 264, 161 pounds gone in 8 months.

I work at a nuclear plant out here in SoCal and life is good, plenty of beaches to the west and mountains to the east.

I am in between LA and San Diego, man could it get any better than that ?

I am down to a snug 38 in jeans and a loose 2x shirt, I have been hitting all the thrift stores, for some odd reason the rich folks here don't wear their clothes to long and they simply give them to Goodwill.

I am going to Disneyland next this Thursday 24th, I get in free cause its my birthday, YAY!!!!!

I am going to Mexico City the following Wed for 3 days, I will be going to see Templo Mayor, Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid of the Moon and Teotihuacán.

It's so good to be me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also have met someone here, just as a friend who has invited me to and all inclusive 4 day trip to Cairn, Australia, she got us and awseome deal, we are just waiting on March to get here.

So, Life Is Good.................Dennis

How much can I do and when, I get really tired after walking is that to be expected. I want to start back lifting weights, but I got 2 more weeks before I can. I havent got on a scale, but I can see I have lost weight. Maybe I should not start off walking an hour a week after surgery.

I have been out of the hospital for almost a week today.

I went and walked around the local Wal-Mart, this way  if I fell out my friend at the bank could come get me up lol.

I am also feeling quiet well, my wounds are healing good, my mood is pretty good.

I go back to my docs next week for check up visit maybe he will avoid the scales lol, if not I will let you know on here how much I have lost YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Its day 6 for me, I got up this moring and took the kid to school. I had a few things to do before I came back home, so I went and walked some around wal mart,shopped......etc. I cam home took the trash off, went and check the mail, folded clothes,washed clothes.
I got kinda of tired after being up for 3 hours, I had to lay down for abour an hour or so, hopefully this is to be expected.

Ok Im outta here for the day.

Hi Everyone,

I am back home and everything seems to be going fine. Dr Paul Macik had me in and out in no time for a quick recovery. I was nervous about it but now its done and I am on my way to sucess.

Dennis

I have 2 more days to go, I am having the RNY with Dr Paul Macik. I am a bit nervous this morning, it must be the thought of actually getting it done.
I guess we all feel nervous at some point, but I kept in the back of my head for weeks now. I couldnt even sleep last night, hopefully I will tonight.
I am hoping that alot of good things come out of this for me.

Dennis

I am headed to Atlanta for my pre-op stuff to do, then off to Jacksonville Florida Friday to kinda of clear my thoughts on the new me that will be emerging in months to come.
