Well guys, i feel really good and have started to get pretty active. If anyone is scared of post band pain and such I have a pic of me I will post 2 wweks and 2 days postop! Just so you know, I asked my doc and he said an easy ride would be fine 2 weeks postop. We did an easy ride of about 45 miles and it was a great day.My sled felt great and pulls hard with the almost 50 pounds gone right now

I am starting to eat more though, feeling like I am alot more hungry. I can't wait till the 18th of April

ski'ed when I was a kid. This summer my goal is to try and learn to wakeboard. Might be pretty lofty goal, but it never hurts to try.

For me the ole pencil did get some lead added to it. Mrs. Gaffer has confirmed that by telling me she does not know what she will do when I lose more weight.

Yet another postitive side effect of the band.

:eek:

Gaffer.... If you continue to gain "lead" along with your weight loss and the Mrs. finds it uncomfortable... you can always use tradtional donuts as spacers... obviously has to be the ones with the hole in the middle... boston cream will not work but may lead to other adventures. Do not try this with a Starbucks donut as it will have adverse side affects such as:

* wanting to trade in that V10 Dodge 2500 truck for a turquoise BMW

* the need to talk for hours after sex

* standing in Chapters book aisles for hours crying over a Daniel Steele book.

Stick with the Tim Hortons -- You can get em anytime of day and if you leave them in car overnight they will be hard as pucks.. in fact that the Timmy's moto for donut spacers... our donuts are PUCKS for *UCKS.

Good luck and congrats Mrs Gaffer

LOL. Thanks, that was pretty funny. I am afraid I am no longer allowed to be in the same room as a donut as I may revert back to my ways.

No need to worry about the Starbucks donut. Who can afford that crap.

Manhood Check-up

*So what if I drive a BMW, I now longer need to make up for short commings with a huge truck. Although one could have been handy for my weekend trips to the Home Depot (I prefer Totem, but I am sure no one on this board would know what that is)

*Talking after sex? She wont have the energy to talk when I'm done:heh:

*Books - I heard of those. Aren't they like big magazines with fewer pictures.

You wont be too far away, and then you will have to get your own box of Timbits for Mrs. CanMacDaddy.

Brothers of the band, I have a small accomplishment to share. Today I wore the ultra sleek, 36in waste, non pleated, straight fit pant to work today.. Had a bit of dunlap, maybe exagerated from the post-op swelling, but I pulled it off without looking like an idiot. Many compliments from the back-office ladies in cubicles as well, I might add. I have worn these pants at the tail end of my annual diet the last 4 years, only to blow back up to the 250+ area (40in waste).

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
