Wow... a little difference?

Well about 4 months ago a reporter did a story on Mike and I having our gastric bypass's together. I didn't think much of it, I had just had my surgery and it was 1 week later and Mike was having his that day. I figured it would be a quick little story on local TV, so I wasn't worried about it. The story went very well. They moved the date back on it, and ended up running it for sweeps. We were a cute fat couple happy and doing something that we thought would better our lives. We were taking a little control of our health. And the reporter Brandy Vega told us the people at work liked us from watching her work on our story. That made us feel good.  The story aired and went very well. It was the most popular story on the website the next day, and we didn't know it, even Brandy didn't know that they reran the story the next night. It made Mike and I feel good, that that many people gave a hoot!

Well today Brandy came back over to do a follow up story on us. I had a rocky little start but I'm fantastic now I have lost as of tonight 74 pounds. It will be 4 months for me tomorrow the 5th. Mike has done amazing the entire time he has lost 1almost 110 pounds, in less than 4 months. In the interview I was a dork and just said dorky things, nothing that I thought I would say, or wanted to say. Just air headed things! Oh well I trust Brandy to edit the stuff so I'm not so dorky!

 

Mike reenacted his "before" look for her.

                                 I got a new hair cut for it:-)

          

                 We had to go buy Mike a shirt that wasn't way to big, but he found a hat.

Oh, on a side note... the puppies are way cute!

A man Mike is great friends with, in marketing for Mike's company, wanted a picture of Mike in his big pants, for a magazine add. He wanted to say that using Mike's "product" would slim your waistline!hahaha I don't know if we will ever get to see it. He is in Ireland, and I don't know what magazine he is sending it to. But this is one of the pictures we sent.

Quite an impressive picture.

Well brandy wanted a picture from way back. So I went back to find a picture and ran across these. Mike and I and even the kids FREAKED OUT! WE were so FAT!!!

Mike and I both had some great nurses. I had a few nurses a couple of times, because I was in the hospital 3 times! But they ask us to come back and see them. We went back before Christmas and each of our favorite nurses were there. They were excited to see us and had seen our little news story. That was fun.
