Part 2 of one year update

Well I recieved my info that I can now share. I am joining DX in being an advertisement of WLS. CMMC has asked me to do billboards, newspaper ads and radio ads for them. I will be joining two lovely ladies from there and one that I know posts on OH. Our very own Kim Grimme. I am honored to be associated with such a skinny minny as her. We will be going and having our photo shoot and radio spots done in may. I was shocked to be asked. It gave me a swelled head and made my wife giggle with suprise. My surgeon told me that it was patients like me that made them look good. And I told him he is the one who made me live longer so I thank him for that. My other big WOW was that I now am able to buy my clothes at Walmart for the first time in my memory. No more big and tallstores for me and no more kingsize direct for me. But I wanted to wait till I got the letter from the hospital to make sure I wasnt dreaming it all. LOL But I wanted to share with you my news. Barry

Barry, This is great news for you and DX. Look out though, next they'll want a calendar like the one of the Texas fireman!! Don't think Momma Bear would go for that !!!!!!!! Tomanip

That is so great!!!! I think that more people need to know the positive side to weight loss surgery and that many many people do great and feel great and it really does work!!!!!
