Fat Schmat: Weightloss Timeline

Seeing as it's 3 in the morning, I'm going to keep this update [relatively] concise. This update contains my weightloss timeline. It spans from my max weight of 355 lbs (Aug '09) to 205 lbs (my most recent picture). At some point -- likely later today, if I have time between work and watching the Ravens dismantle the Steelers -- I will upload what post-skin removal pictures I have. A bit of forewarning, they aren't pretty, but I feel the need to post them because apparently, despite my dry humor and smartassed personality, people find me motivating! I know that during my research phase (both before my RNY and before my recent surgery), blogs like these helped a ton in terms of getting me ready for what I should expect. My only hope is that this blog might have the same impact on some other overweight folk dealing with what we all deal with, mentally and physically, when excess weight is a factor in your life.

Future updates will be a bit more wordy, since, as many of you know, I don't know how to shut up. Don't go getting used to these shorter posts! Anyways, picture time:

August 2009 (WIP: 355)
