Hey Brian and day late, but I wanted to congratulate you on your surgeriversary!!! I know it is tough because I found those same 25 pds last year in a matter of months! I grabbed myself up by the boot straps and said to myself what in the hell are you doing to yourself Janine? Well I lost those 25 this year and went on to lose a total of 57 pds. I am maintaining gratefully and do not know if I will lose more, but the biggest gain I had that at 6+ years out that I am always going to have to be aware of what goes in my mouth. I am cool with it as I have gained some self accepts about it....like measuring my food and all that good stuff (being positive about that one!).

You're going to do great Brian no matter what because you got a reminder how precious life is and not to waste it on Pepsi and fried foods...you have a teenager daughter there who would probably really like to see her daddy walk her down the isle someday!!! Just remember that!

Hey you going to OH convention?

Thanks Janine.  No I do not plan on attending any OH functions.  We had a very bad experience on the Men's Forum a few months ago with OH.  Many of the men left for the website Quix (the one DX always talks about).  OH disrespected alot of the men there and the site is still recovering.  Also OH staff was going over to the Quix site and causing great hardship (mischief) to the people there (OH may get sued for it).  I try to make it to the local support groups, coffees, and lunches here in the area when I can.  Although Tom's Farm sounds real fun!!  Brian
