HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!

Ok, This morning before I went to work, my lovely wife, Brandi, and I stopped off at the Diabetic center to get me weighed for the week. Now I have had really bad kidney stones for about 2 weeks now, and the antibiotics were messing with my system, pretty much stuffing me up, if you get my meaning. But I have been drinking TONS of water to try and flush out those painful lil buggers out of my kidneys. I haven't been feeling like eat much for the past week, and Brandi understood, pain does that to me, why eat if you feel so nausiated that you don't know if you will keep it down anyway? So as to speed things along with the anitibiotics I have been eating some bad things, things that would normally now send me running to the bathroom within an hour, to get things going once again. But I digress......meanwhile back at the diabetic center this morning as I got weighed. I had to do it 3 time just to make sure, I have finally hit the 200 lbs mile marker, pasted it actually, I am sitting at 399lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????? I realy don't know what to say here, I am in awe!!! 200 lbs in 9 months, HOLY FREAKING CRAP BATMAN!!!


Well I have to go do some cartwheels now, be back soon.

Jim

Brandi keeps us up to date on your progress on OH.com's DS board, and she's so darn proud of you -- so are we all! Way to go ...

I added links on my blog to yours and Brandi's. I figure the more folks who find out about the DS and its wonders, the better.

Jim, there has never been a point in our lives where I outweighed you.

That day is quickly approaching though.

Awsome!
(I'd better get my tubby ass in the gym pronto, or it will be really sooner rather than just soon.)

Don't let him fool you- there's tons of changes and things going on. He's being far too modest ;-D
Jim Bean, you need to learn to be proud of your accomplishments... and brag about them occassionally.

That is, after all, what this site is for lol
Besides, when people ask...! It's not like you're clubbing them in the street, dragging them off and telling them all about the good things that have happened to you- they COME HERE to read about them! Silly boy.
Love yah though.

Still it doesn't seem to really be my nature. I try to be more rreserved and quiet. But hey, the clubbing people just beacuse sounds good.!

Besides that, inquiring minds want to know your take- they see me blabbing about it all over the place (ok, not so much hear lately, because of my being so busy :-) lol I guess I could update today, but I wanted to do it with pictures).
And it's not bragging- think of it this way... your posting about what life is like for you now, as a favor to someone who is in the position you were in a year ago, now. They want to know that life is normal, good after surgery. They need to know. You should tell them :-D
