I am keeping a (private) journal of the experience. At my psych evaluation I complained about finding very little information for men online and he suggested writing a book on that.

Who knows? ;-)

No interest in blogging/videos... that's straight up attention whoring these days.

@@Fredbear .... Cmon....blogging and videos are "straight up attention whoring", but you writing a book on your experience is not?

Two sides of the same communication coin, and nothing wrong with either one.

I didn't go public for the attention. I went public to inspire others.

Attention whoring is pretty offensive. I feel like many of the video blogs have been very helpful to me and I have been thinking about doing one when I get to the pre-op diet phase.

What video editing platform are you guys using to vlog? I am interested in starting one but VERY lost on the editing/mashing videos and adding pics/text etc.

I just use the video editor on youtube, still not an expert and can't do much yet. You don't need to be fancy to start. Just start posting videos and add stuff as you go and as you learn. That is what I see most people do.

That's where I'm at, too. I was just looking for any support and community out there and thought it would be fun to dive in, but I really am a newbie. It looks like YouTube has a lot of cool functionality that I'll explore as I go! If you decide to take the leap, let us know - I'd love to see :)

I've decided to blog my journey at theantichick.com (but haven't put up any posts about it yet) and have considered doing a vlog, but I don't know about that. I think I'll subscribe to a couple of you guys' and see if I want to join in that as well.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
