I started my video blog on my gastric sleeve experience!

Hey everyone,

I had a video blog years ago when I did the Master cleanse, and when I was trying a brand of Protein shakes. I have just restarted my blog to document my gastric sleeve experience. I want to see if I can get some subscribers here. Please subscribe to my channel and share with others.

The blog is called rebuilding Paul! and I hope you'll take a moment to watch it and offer any suggestions you may have. I want these to improve as I go and this community is very helpful.

Thanks. My doctor likes them. He's putting them on his website. Hopefully I can get more people to subscribe and share. I have about 15 friends who are exercising and dieting because they said I inspired them. So every time I think about cheating on my diet, they get mad at me and make sure I don't.

I was worried they were a bit too long and had too much talking. I'm going to try to make them more brief in the future. I also am going to start having people take video of me exercising so I can do a montage when I reach my goal.

That's awesome! Good for you. I started a blog when I began my journey (about 9 months pre-op) and I still keep up with it now (27 months post op). I get messages all the time that it has helped complete strangers with their struggles and that means the world to me. It also keeps me honest. Everytime I want to give up or go off track I think about everyone who reads my blog and I feel a sense of responsibility to them. it's also great for me to go to it and look back over my journey. Some day in the future when I feel more like my journey is "complete" I'd love to make it into a book. Anyway, just wanted to say I think you will be really glad you did this a couple of years down the line when you can look back on it :-)

Nice blog. I'm wondering if I will need surgery to get rid of the loose skin. My doctor says in exchange for using my video blog he will give me a HUGE discount.
