Well, thats my take on it, I need to be healthy to support my family and before I developed additonal problems, diabetes, etc due to being overweight. Ive also managed to quite smoking after 10 years and havent had a dip in over a week. (requirements for the surgery)

It is a big step, but a commitment im willing to make

 

Yeah, hes a little bitty thing. Im not a big fan of poodles but my little boy has pet alergys but is able to be around poodles with no ill effects. I wanted him to have a puppy, I think its a great part of growing up, and so, a poodle it was

Besides Im already attached to the little guy, hes got quite a personality. Hes already pad trained, and does well with going outside, and makes absolutely NO noise at night....

 

Hey Holsteinman>
Ya Killed Many Bucks Down Your Way ?

 

Who?

Don't fret too much. 3 of my friends have had that procedure done with no ill effects. Well, one of them turned gay afterwards, but other than that...

Seriously tho, all of them are doing fine and look great.

You must look totally different in person. The pictures you've posted now and in the past just don't make you look like you're 350lbs.

What a cute pup! No kid should grow up without a dog.

chaikwa.

 

Your Favorite Southern Boy!


I have a couple of family members who have done it... and have great results. So I have a couple of local coaches to help.

Nope, I look just like I do in my pics... just carry the weight very well (still want to get rid of it though.....)

Most people put me at around 275 to 300 at the most, but I have a slip showing my weight from Monday, 359 lbs and 44% BMI.

I agree, I always loved my dogs growing up. Aiden is already getting attached to Banjo and they have a great time playing together.

Oh and btw, give you one guess who named him Banjo. The mind of a 4 year old never ceases to amaze me.

 

Well I guess I scared everyone away.... Going watch some TV with the OL...

Yall take care now ya hear.

 

Not everyone, I am at work, so I will be in and out. Good on you Blake, the right decisions are always the hardest, but you knew that. You will be glad you did it. You might be surprised on how much weight one could lose just walking a dog? I will keep you in the prayer loop. Can I have all you beer?

 

Hey Blake > How Ya Like That Mac Lap Top ?

 

Evenin' all! Just got back from dinner with my Mom and Grandpa. Pork loon and potatoes. VERY TASTY. Still cold out. -30* or so. Might drop to -40* tonight.


I graduated in June of 96 from thier diesel program. Not a bad deal but even after passing thier courses you still have aot to learn. It wasn't a bad first step.

 

Congrats and good luck Blake. I know how you feel being big like that. I'm 6'2" and usually push 285 or so. Perfectly healthy just big. I tell Mama that I'm warmth in the winter and shade in the summer..... Still I try to get a bit off here and there. I'm hitting the gym again. Been going in with a guy from work. With his motivation, I can now just barley make it up mu stairs to the living room. Stupid squats........
