Posted by Matt Williams


Well, it's been 1 year for me today since my sergury. I have lost over 150 Lbs. and I feel wonderful. I am still loosing weight and I am not at my goal weight yet. I still want to loose 25 more lbs. I can do more with my life now. I enjoy life to it's fullist. I have done things now that I wish I could have done 1 year ago, such as going to Busch Gardens and ride all the rides with my friends and family. I do not have to stand on the side and wait for them while they enjoy them selves. I don't look foward to eating because I don't get hungry that often. I just know when I need to eat during the day. It's hard for me to beleave that this day is finally here. The day I said exactly 1 year ago to my wife " I wonder what I will look like in 1 year. Well, Here I am. Posted with this message, is a picture of me now and a picture of me exactly 1 year ago.

New pics of me!

On Friday, July 27 I achieved my goal. It has been 10 month and 9 days (44 weeks and 4 days) since my surgery. I have lost 126 lbs.YAY!


The before picture was taken at the Yankees/Orioles game in August 2006 and the after picture was taken at daddy's house on July 8, 2007.

BIG difference in the before and after pictures.

Lots of time has passed!

Well, lots of time has passed since my last entry on this blog. My life has been busy considering im much lighter now and can do more things!

Matter of fact, I went to busch Gardens today and all my life I have not been able to ride b ut like 2 rides there because of my weight. Well, today was my first day at Busch Gardens and I was able to ride EVERYTHING NOW!!!! I was so excited and happy and joyful. Many times I would try and loose about 20 lbs. when I was big and try to fit in the ride seat and they had to push it down to get me in and it still wouldn't work. I was so embarrested about it. Sometimes I would cry because it was such an embarressment. It was hard to deal with because I saw my family having such a good time on the rides and I couldn't do it because of a weight problem I had.

I had a blast today! But anyway, I have lost more weight ( as usual ) not sure exactly more but I will weigh myself and write another blog later on.

My life has changed so much, I can't even begin to explain to you about it. If you knew me before the surgery, you know I was lazy, fat, didn't like to do nothing that involved to much movement and I smoked like a chimmny. It was a life I will never have again.
