  2. Awesome nikki! Good luck! Any updates Teres?
  3. Cool. He is awesome. The gas pain is REAL! Walk, walk, walk! As much as possible. You may not feel like you can ever swallow normally again but you will. Just take your time and sip water as much as you possible can. The first couple of days, maybe as much as a week will suck but after that it will be so worth it and get much easier each day. My wife did it about 6 months ago as well and is doing great too.
  4. Yes! I did it with Dr. Purtell at SWAT Surgical.
  5. I'm in Lubbock, Texas and was sleeved in December of 2018. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

  9. I have binge watched so much it's almost embarrassing. Ozark is amazing. Currently watching Outlander weekly as they come out with the wife. Orange is the New Black, The Last Kingdom, Cooking shows, The Office, Dark, Mind Hunters, and I'm sure there's more I can't think of right now.

  11. Just posted a video of my journey. Hope everyone is doing well!
  12. Ha! Here we go with the corrections for what it's worth!
  13. Ha! Dangit! I woke up thinking about how I might have undersold that! Can't believe it since I am a math guy. That's terrible. It won't let me just edit it so I had to edit it in the program and post a new video on my channel with the correct totals on there this time. Thanks for watching.

    Ha, mine said I should have died a year and half ago! Ironically that is around the date I started researching my options and discovered this thing called "Gastric Sleeve" that I had never even heard of before August of 2018 which is when it said I should have expired. Now it gives my until September 2048. I'd say that's a huge improvement for what it's worth! Instead of dying at 43 I should make it to 73. Yes!!!
  16. Can't believe I'm actually in Onederland! I didn't think this was ever possible again. What a journey! Now it also gives me a great place to cap myself at for the future ie. 199.9.
  17. Wow, you have done great!
  18. Wow. way to go McCaw! You are killing it! Btw, I stepped on the scale for the first time since before the Christmas Holidays and am now unbelievably in to One Hundreds! Officially 197.8 from 426 in late 2018. What a journey. I felt like I didn't stay on point great through the holidays, which include my birthday and several others in my family as well as several Christmas parties but I still lost some. I never thought I would see the 100's again or that it would be possible with the loose skin I have as well. Crazy. Keep going everyone and remember why we did it!
  19. One year sleeviversary today!!! The family even had me try on my old letter jacket from high school. Crazy!
