A gift from the Bear
*** WARNING ***

*** WARNING ***
Well I am down in Florida on Vacation. How wierd does it feel to be in a pool in that latter part of December while listening to Christmas music? Needless to say, the weather is awesome. I wanted to give you all a little early Christmas gift. As some of you know Dave has been taking pictures of me in a Speedo each week since the week before surgery. Well I thought I would share with you a picture showing me the week before surgery, and one from a week ago before we left to come down here. Enjoy!
I am currently down 65 lbs and still losing.
Miss you all!
Jeff

dave makes you stand in a corner for your photo shoots? LOL! I rememer your post about photos - in front of doors... and wearing the same outfit... I have been anxious ever since to see how your photos were "set."
Very noticable changes... you have to be THRILLED!
Now - be sure to answer Vanessa... she's in FLA too and could use a night of fun and laughter if you're in her "neck of the woods."
Thanks BBJ!!!

I used that picture to craft an ornament for our tree...hope you don't mind...
Just kidding! Awesome, man! You've got more guts than me.
Merry Christmas! We're in NC for the holidays and are just sick with the warmth! I want to see some snow and feel the cold...we left Buffalo to early I think!
Take care...and we'll catch up when we're all back and settled in January!

Hey! Looks like you're going to be needing a smaller size soon - I can see the Speedo wrinkling around your derriere!
All joking aside Jeff, that is quite a change.
Congratulations!

What a great present. I was wondering about the speedo and how that was going. The weight loss is obvious!
