Time to share

In the time since my Gastric Bypass March 3, 2009 I as you might guess spent the majority of my time adjusting to all of the changes. Some of the things that I have experienced were expected and I was ready for them. Other things were a little bit of a surprise. I will say that all in all I have been thankful for the new life I have.



I weighed 328 pounds at my highest point. I struggled my entire life with weight. Not just the scale demon either. I believed that I was heavy even when I wasn't. I think that there are a lot of people out there that fight this war. I have talked to lots to wonderful people about their own struggles and there do seem to be a few common threads that beat us all into submission and help lead us into our personal version of obese hell.



I think that the first thing I am going to do is break these items down into smaller pieces that will allow for a close look at them and just maybe in the process I can get my head around the problem. I also intend to celebrate my success. This is a journey not an instant trip so I will be writing that way.
