What a guy!

Speaking of which, if anyone else needs a "workout partner", I'm single. Just offering to help support the group, of course. :heh:

I thought I posted my weights at one point, but I'll do so again. On March 31, 2006, I was 316 when I visited my family doctor. (I had previously gotten as high as 330.) At that point, I was on three different oral meds for diabetes and still not completely controlled. I contacted the Ohio State University Bariatrics department and began my Quest. I had to do a 12 week supervised weight management program to qualify for the surgery. At the end of the 12 weeks (which was actually 13 weeks because I couldn't make it on the 12th week so sometime in July), I weighed 294. On my initial visit to the surgeon in early August, I was 288. On my birthday, November 2, I was 290. They weighed me the morning of surgery (11/7) but the weight was so ridiculous I don't use it. As of Monday, I'm at 258, so 32 pounds in 12 weeks post surgery. Don't have a specific goal weight, per se, but a waist size, but somewhere around 225.

I'm 6'3", 43 years old, divorced (21 year marriage) with an 18 year old son. Ex and I get along great as long as we don't live together or talk about money. I live with my 3 dogs (two Miniature Australian Shepherds and a Corgi) and, hopefully this weekend, about 15 dairy goats. (Ex and I have raised goats for years and she's kept my goats from the time of separation until I found a goat-friendly property.) Finally found a place that I could afford that wasn't falling into the ground and bought it and moved in October. (I would NOT suggest buying a place, moving in, go to a week long convention then have LapBand surgery all within a month! And then get a new puppy a few days after surgery.) I live in North Central Ohio, north of Columbus.

Occupation wise I work for a major credit card company in customer service. (Basically means I sit on my butt all day, wear a headset and listen to people whine.) I did the whole corporate ladder thing and found the higher you climb the further you fall so now just coast along. Enjoy not worrying about my job until I clock in and forgetting about it as soon as I clock out. I'm a licensed dairy goat judge so from spring through fall, I travel the country judging shows and county and state fairs judging goats. (Being "licensed" means I've passed a test to become a goat-titty expert. :heh: )

I'll have to see if I have any G or PG pictures. :bandit

I'm looking for someone to take care of me for the rest of my life. Appearance means far less than size of the bank account. Please, no one who's bank account has undergone reduction surgery! :omg: Preferably very old too.

Any other questions?

Hey, I used to be a buckeye, and I have mini dairy goats...Nigerian Dwarfs. Also ex-corporate ladder for the same reasons. Too bad I'm married....and not rich.

With your new bod, maybe you can become a gigolo.

Actually, my ex and I have Nigerian Dwarves. (The NDs are hers. The Oberhasli are mine.) We have one of the more successful ND herds in the country and have raised them since almost the beginning. Not sure how into the breed you are, but the herd name is Buttin'Heads.

I've thought about the gigolo thing but there's the whole disease issue. Really would prefer a sugar mommy (hell, I'd take a sugar daddy at this point if he's really rich and really old <G>).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
