So what are you going to do when you loose your weight
You know there are alot of things I look forward to doing (tucking my shirt in, not working around my gut when putting my skates, looking down and seeing my dick, the normal things hahahah) but i have to say the one thing i want to do is Stage dive again. Growing up in a punk rock hardcore music world stage dives were one of the greatest things in the world to do but i realize there is a weight window for these things and i have long passed it, but if i get down below 200 i am going to do it and not see the look of a bunch of horrfied faces of people going noooo the big guy is going to crush us

That is pretty easy. I just wish i had to submit my weigh ins instead of the supervised diet. just cause i don't want to wait 3 months

Now it is time to start the waiting game
They may or may not of wanted some of those for me a as well but I was already diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and had high blood pressure so those were taken care of. You know I am curious what they look for in the supervised diet. Do they want to see if you can loose weight or that you can't thats why you need the lap band

WHY is everyone so against WLS?
When I started telling everyone my plans to get banned I got alot of people telling me "THat such and such died and blah blah blah" My response was look at me I am one all you can eat buffet from a heart attack. I WILL die if i don't loose this weight" that usually shuts them up
