The man's side of it!

Diet update: I have lost a total of 52 pounds since I decided to get the bariatric surgery. The surgery will take place on Monday the 11th. I started drinking only the shakes the doctor provided last Thursday and lost a total of 34 pounds. I just wish I wasn't so hungry. But the surgery will help with the hunger and make it easier to eat less. Then when I lose enough weight and get the stress off my back I can start to exercise and get back in shape. I hope it helps my back, at least the doctors seem to think so and maybe I won't need the back surgery.

I received another Garfield comic from my friend Nancy. (Thanks Nancy!)

After I first discovered Garfield as a young boy I secretly desired an fat orange cat of my own. There was just something about that cat. For years everyone in my family thought that I hated cats mainly because my mom's cat Jerry clawed my infant daughter Michele across the face for no reason at all. That cat used up a few of it's nine lives after I threw it out the door.

When I married Cassie and fell in love with her cats my family was astonished. They could not believe that I was the same guy. Soon after Cassie and I married I told her of my secret. I always wanted a fat orange cat. One day while we were shopping at Pet Smart for dog and cat food we checked out the cats in the shelter there for adoption. As soon as I saw this big fat Bengal mix I fell in love. I told Cassie I wanted to adopt him. Cassie said but he's not orange! I didn't care, he was beautiful and his name was Kozmo. After the adoption process was over I brought Kozmo home and he has been my cat. I few months later we did the shopping bit again at the Pet Smart and I got my orange cat Cubby and Cassie brought home Sox. We are one big happy family now with six very sweet and lovable cats. Oh and an ADD dog.

 Here's the comic.
