That is funny! I'm from the Albany area. Where's your family located/your mom born? VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.2 GW = 220 (6'5")

I'm originally from NY..been here 18 years and love it. It's a good place to live. And the cost of living difference is great! You're right, it'd be nice to have someone to relax and have fun with after a long work week. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.2 GW = 220 (6'5")

Thanks for the karaoke tip. I went for the first time last week and had fun so maybe I need to try that some more. Lol. You don't happen to live in NC do you? [emoji6] I took a break from trying online dating sites. The women I was meeting were, well...I'll leave that alone. I'm know there are alot of good ones out there but they must be hard to find that way. It'll happen when it's meant to happen, I'm sure. Hope you have success and find true love!!

Nice!!! I need to make this. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Amazing results! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Keep moving forward. You'll get there. Nice progress! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

I can relate. I was wearing a tight 3x tall shirt and I'm down to a large tall...hard to believe for me. Hoping it goes away so I can fully appreciate my progress and healthier life. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Yes, it's possible. Alot of people do reach their personal goal in a year. I'm very close myself at a little over 4 months out frm surgery. I lost alot on my preop plan which helped. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Thanks!! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Yeah, Wake has a great program. I did not know Novant had one. Good luck!! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Great job! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Congrats. Are you going through Wake Forest? VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Great job. Congratulations!! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Awesome job!! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 225.6 GW = 220 (6'5")

Congratulations!! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 226.2 GW = 220 (6'5")

Great job! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 226.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

Nice job! I like the 100 calorie cocoa almond packs, Dannon low fat light and fit greek yogurt (cherry is my fav) for snacks. Meatballs and rotisserie chicken are so good to me. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 226.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

Be patient...you may even experience this when you've lost a significant amount of weight. I've been through out and use a scale so I can see my results and when I stall. The stalls don't bother me...but getting used to the new body takes some adjustment sometimes. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 226.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

I'm going to finally add to my traditional Japanese tattoo theme with a piece on my right chest. Almost there! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

Thanks for the kind words!! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

I love that idea. I'm going to do that!! Thank you. My personality is 100% the same. Still the same nice guy who likes to have fun. I love the fact that I'm healthier. VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

Yes. It's tough because I'm the same guy I was before...people talk to me now that wouldn't give me the time of day before. I don't like that but need to get over it! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

Thank you. I appreciate the compliment. Too bad there is not an easy fix for "fat brain"! VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

Ok, so my son shares this picture of me and him from about 2 years ago last week. Out of the blue when were talking and he's fidgeting with his phone he says, "Damn, you have to see this!" Right off the bat I'm thinking what's wrong? He shows me the pic and then texts a screenshot to me. Ever since then I can't get out of my mind that I don't believe I'm as small as I am now. I mean I can fit in the same size clothes as my 18 year old son. It's very emotional to look at myself in the old picture... I don't want to sound crazy or sound like I'm ungrateful for the results I've had. I know there's a lot of people out there who would love to be in the position I'm in and I hope they are just as successful. I'm so much healthier and able to enjoy life. Has this happened to anyone else? Where your mind hasn't caught up to where your body is? What do you do about it? VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")

I'm ~8 pounds from my goal. Very thankful...but I'm having a hard time believing I'm this much smaller. I can fit into the same size clothes as my 18 y/o son now. I wish my mind would catch up with where my body is. I'm sure there are alot of people that would love to have my problem right now so I don't want to sound ungrateful. I'm very glad I'm a lot healthier. . VSG 10/11/17 HW = 360 SW = 292 CW = 228.8 GW = 220 (6'5")
