Just another guy checking in. I get sleeved next week. I am 5' 10" and 275. The only thing that makes me unique is that I travel all over the world all the time. It sounds glamorous, but I have been averaging a trip around the world once a month for the past 5 years, and it has damn near killed me. I am taking a couple months off this summer to get myself on a new path. I can relate to the seat belt extender issue. It is a tight squeeze for me in a bunch of coach seats.

This diet is brutal, but it is the first time I ever lost 12lbs in 5 days. I guess it works.

I am on day 5. I feel normal for the first time since I started. I would still love a piece of real food. I put some tabasco in the Tomato Soup and that helped. I am the family cook, so I thought nothing of going to the grocery store for the family today. It was a bad idea.

This may sound crazy but look for a dentist specializing in sleep apnea. The FDA has approved a dental appliance called TAP 3 for severe OSA. It is very easy to get used to. More than 90 percent of people who try these keep them, compared to 50 percent with CPAP. the only problem is that it is hard to get insurance to pay. It has. A Dental Code and it is used for a medical condition. That creates havoc with our insurance systems. I paid cash and would do it again.

Hi CantBelieve_IdidIit!

Dont really know where to start' date=' but I was always a big kid.

Used to play rugby and was a school swimmer (high school) was always big and muscular, till I went to the Army.

I had an operation on both my feet, due to injury, thus unable to walk for almost 8 mths in 2003.

Since den I've just been eating and eating and eating.

No exercise.... loads of alcohol and serious binge eating especially at night after 11pm.

I've put on heaps of weight and decided to have a VST this year because I felt I couldnt keep to dieting and exercise. And the VST went well on the 1st May 2012.

Since then I've lost alot of weight and am continuing to lose even more.

I've noticed my shoulders getting smaller... kinda like an "A" body shape, and decided to head to the gym last night, hoping to bulk up my shoulders before even more weight loss occurs.[/quote']

I get sleeved in a week and my first trip will be to Singapore. What Hawker food could you eat 6 weeks out? I am thinking grilled stingray or Chili Crab would go down easy.
