I know a guy who was over 550 lbs, had that surgery about 3 years ago, is about 225 now and no health problems.

RickBomba 11-15-2006 10:23 PM

Yeah Mike,
Mikey's right, you do look like ten years younger now, then when I met you four years ago (that's 14 years, so I beat my brother in the compliment department)!
I've been fighting the good fight myself just with the diet and excercise, and you're right, you and your loved ones feel better every day.
Keep it up, bro.
Later,
Rick
