Re: vertical sleeve surgery

I'm just curious, is this picture the way you feel? If so we have kindred spirits. I am that guy in that picture and I HATED my picture to be taken. I didn't want to think about my weight, I didn't want to deal with it at all. Then I started thinking about how long I would live to take care of my family/children and hopefully grand children.

I DARE YOU to start counting calories for 3 weeks, eat right and ask for advice on what you're eating and allow us to modify your diet and NOT LOSE WEIGHT. If you an do that I will agree with you and tell you to please go get the surgery.

This picture isn't meant to be flipping you off, it was the way I felt every day about being fat and out of shape and was the response to anyone who came near me with a camera. Notice that's my belly folded over my belt into my lap at 310+ lbs. The's me in my avatar as well, same belly 1/2 way down my thigh. Read my signature, if I can do it, anyone can!

BTW my wife has lost 65lbs doing what I am telling you to do, that's right at 30kg.
