The following is an account of my gastric bypass. It took place almost 3 years ago (June 30th is my Surgiversary). I’m writing this as a guide for people who might be thinking about having the surgery so they have some idea of what they can look forward to. Also, if you have friends or relatives who are considering having the surgery or who have had it, this might help you to help them. Post-surgery support is very important to succeeding in this situation. Part One will cover why I had the surgery and some of the hoops I had to jump through to get there. That bloated sack in the picture is me immediately following the surgery. I weighed 320 pounds on the day of the operation.

Faith knows that food is an ideal window through which to explore cultural differences. It’s a delight. Moving on…

I’m assuming you’re now drunk on anti-oxidants? Which doesn’t mesh with the pain in your thighs and have got you feeling ornery? Good, I’ll get some honest dirt out of you!
Welcome to the Super Squats Club. Your weekly corner to track your (non) workouts, bitch about Becky from Boot Camp, and share the latest (safe) dieting dirt with the snarkiest fools around. Might as well enjoy workout hell. The latest Harvard Business Weekly reports that 70% of winning the interwebz is looking good. We’re on a mission critical assignment here.
One rule to remember, people get sensitive bout their fitness –ish so be nice! It’s like discussing my momma…I may call her Sloppy Cunt but it’s Ms. Jackson to you.
You in? And with that, we’re off. I may bring friends next week if you’re good!
