Six Months Post-op Today - ThinnerTimes

Omaha Jim · 05-19-2008, 09:16 AM

I write now in preparation for a new blog this evening. Today, I celebrate life as 6 months post-op GBS. I don't know if I should say "life as 6 months post -op" or if I should say, "Today, I celebrate life!"

What a ride it has been. So many wow's, so many new things, that really aren't new, but surely feel new. Re-newed, health. New friends (you folks). New personal and especially professional successes. New Cloths (Can a guy be a Goodwill Clothing Whore?) Re-newed SEX drive (Oh yeah - I am Bad to the Bone!!!) Simply said, what an amazing 6 months it has been.

The new avvie is a photo that was taken 10 days ago for our Corporate Website. I have always been inconspicuously absent when those were taken in the past. 10 days ago I was at the front of the line. Life Changes for the good.

I consider so many of you essential to my healing and health and truly consider you friends. I look forward to meeting some of you on the cruise and wish nothing but success and health to all.

If you put the first pic and the last one side-by-side, it doesn't even look like the same person.

You rock!

Thank you Jim - for showing us how it's done - for always being a true gent - for always looking on the bright side of life - for never getting involved in pointless arguments and most of all for just being you and sharing your experiences so openly with us.

You have done amazingly well and I am proud of you!
