I went today to see the surgeon for my back.
We set a date, July 13th, that is Friday the 13th for those keeping score at home.
Yeah, my daughter flipped out and told me I needed to change it. I think that is a good day for a surgery. So, if all goes well, I will miss only one week of work and be ready to go back by the following week.
After the visit with the surgeon, I went to the bariatric office and weighed in. Turns out just giving up all that sugar in soda is enough to lose weight. I am already half way through the amount I am supposed to lose. Down 11 pounds, to a svelt 424 lbs. I certainly haven't been eating as well as I should, or getting any serious exercise in with my back all screwed up, so I attribute most of it to just not drinking soda anymore. Oh, and Gravebinder was right, Diet Mountain Dew sucks. It is pretty much pointless. If I am going to have a soda, I have decided I like the diet Dr. Pepper, and the flavored versions of it and Pepsi, like the Pepsi Jazz soda. I have pretty much stopped drinking even these though at this point. I am pretty content with the flavored water drinks.
