After having double hernia surgery Aug 16/2018, I find myself in an odd place to say the least. While the navel surgery was a sucess and I no longer look like I"m having a baby, the groin surgery was not so lucky. In short, according to the surgeon, the hole in the left side was large and although they use a mesh to patch it, neither of us feel like the mesh was holding and unless a lot of improvement shows between now and next month's 2nd follow up appt. with the surgeon, I will have to undergo another surgery again to reinforce the mesh repair. Make that surgery # 15!

That being said, on a positive note, I am now 1 pound away from reaching the top end of my height and weight for my age of the NORMAL weight range. This means that I started out at 293 pounds in July of last year and now weigh 164 pounds. 

My long term weigh loss goal Fu? 155 pounds; I am now 9 pounds away from that ! Not bad !

Along the way, some of my family members and friends have been very encouraging and supportive and I just want to thank them for their encouragement. I"m not done yet Fu as this has been a most remarkable journey as my waist has gone from 46 to 30 and chest size from 2XL to Small-Medium,..again..not bad.

Anyways, Be well and stay tuned for updates..Love to my family and friends for their support !
