Gastric Bypass Book...
FYI:
I'm posting this for those that know me and especially for those I've yet to meet! (There's a lot of new folks around here!) I published my year long journal, made up of a combination of postings here, blog posts, things I wrote, etc. and am providing a link if you'd like a copy. For now, you can buy direct from Lulu.com and soon it will also be available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.com.
Direct link: Tomorrow Is Here: My Gastric Bypass Journey by Michael Fisher (Book) in Self-Improvement
(Also note that from the Lulu site, you can also just download for a reduced rate rather than purchasing the actual book...)
-Mike

Thank you Ladies! I didn't want people to think I was being pretentious, but I also still wanted to share what I've done!
It's still as wild a ride as ever!

It's the first that I've published this way. I used a website called Lulu.com - where you can publish practically anything--books, calendars, photo albums, etc. and then have them professionally printed. It really is a cool site! I've been making photo books through Walgreen's service for the last couple of years, but Lulu is even a little bit cheaper and the stuff gets here pretty quick! I ordered 5 initial copies of the book on the day I created it on their website, and they were here in under 5 days. (That's printing them AND shipping them!)
I sound like a commercial--but I really am loving this site!

Awesome!
Hey Mike,
It's so nice to see you back here! I have been only checking in now and then lately but was excited to see you posting again! You were very active when I first became a member and a true inspiration to me when I was newly post-op! I am sure others will find inspiration in your story as well, now that its available to the masses! Anyway, good to see you. Hope all is well!
Amy~
