Resident Weight Loser Update
As most of you may remember I had gastric bypass back on Dec. 22 and been losing weight since. This week I went to weigh in again and see what I've lost. I've now lost....(insert drum roll here)..... 185 lbs. in less than 8 months. Freaking me out for sure!! The doctor was suprised I've lost this much this fast but I'm good on my bloodwork etc. so nothing to worry about he said. Some people just lose it faster than others. So now I'm able to get on a regular scale rather than the "big boy scale" which I used to have to be on LOL!!! So if you include the soon to be ex-wife that's even more weight I've lost LMAO!!! Anyways I have a new pic of me but due to certain reasons (read last sentence) I won't show on here. Just PM me if you're interested.

I feel great and have lots more energy than before. Now I'm able to slide under my truck like never before and not tired at work or out of breath just from walking. Now I can run (still not very fast LOL!) but able to move alot better than before. Like I was told by "someone" I'm a diamond in the rough. That sums it up alot right there. As time goes on I get more and more chipped away to where I need to be and enjoying it with them.

Wow Brandon. You are looking fantastic. I know you have to feel better. The lady is a hottie too. Although I don't consider you a hottie. You know what I mean?
![]() As for the grin, I think Brandon would have a grin like this no matter what. It's his personality. 185 pounds. You realize you have a lost a me don't you?

right on B!
![]() as for the "you've lost a me" and "10 more pounds and you've lost a Russell" you guys are a bunch of lightweights! i'm a healthy 220, so you've got 35 more to go before you lost a "me" ![]() regarding the lady friend, you mention she is taken. is she taken by you or someone else? ![]() |
