About me

Introduction	This blog is about the process of going through gastric by pass surgery and changing my life forever. Why do you ask- so many reasons and so many stories but mainly to be a "normal sized" person. I want to be able to go into any store - let's say Target or Walmart and buy some clothes that fit- Hey I have simple tastes. I want to be able to have my children put their arms around me and be able to touch their own hands while hugging me. I want to be around to see my kids graduate from college, walk my daughters down the isle, see my grandchildren grow and spoil them. I want to grow old with the woman I love. I want to be able to be described by someone else to someone who does not know me and my weight or size never come up in the conversation. The "big guy", the "fat guy" Why do this blog? I don't know what's going to happen along this adventure but I know that if i can share my story and help someone else as well as keeping myself accountable then it will be worth it.
