Just curious if anyone else is having surgery on Aug. 12th next week? My sister is meeting me in El Paso, and although we're a bit concerned about the drug violence down there recently, I've been assured by everyone that this is normal and things will be safe.
I can't wait for this surgery! I am around 450 right now and am planning on regaining my "former glory" back down to 225 lbs, my playing weight in high school. At 6' 3", that's pretty lean, but lean is great, right?
Anyway, any responses appreciated. I look forward to posting my progress.
