Congratulations and keep us updated on your progress.

I was the same way, tired of being tired and soar feet, back and just about everything else in between.

Good luck on you journey and new life.

Jerry, Congratulations! Know that you WILL see the improvements you want in your health and general comfort. A year ago, I had major fasciitis in my feet, back pain, knee pain, daily heartburn (on prilosec every day) and sleep apnea (I'm sure I could list other things too).

Now:
- my fasciitis is almost gone and I walk a LOT!
- knees are much happier
- back pain is nowhere what it was (now I get a sore bum from sitting with less padding - go figure!)
- NO heartburn at all!
- I sleep like a baby

Plus, I get to buy clothes in the "normal" sizes, have a ton more energy and am far more comfortable in my skin!

Any time I get discouraged, I just need to remember back to where I was 15 months ago and I feel rejuvenated and grateful.

Welcome and good luck in surgery!
