Default I got down, down pat.

Every time I start to post my medical crap on here I think, there are so many people worse off than me, so WTF am I doing?

The shortest answer? Starving!

I have been diagnosed with gastroparesis, short for food not emptying out of my stomach at normal speed. Pain is unreal at times.. The scale of 10 is inadequate. How much pain do you endure before you pass out? Vomit? Been there, got the t-shirt that is now a few sizes too large.

I have lost a total of 121 lbs from as large as I have ever been, 55 pounds this year alone. I am down to 209 lbs. My doctor says if I behave and my blood work is as good as it was this last time I am no longer considered diabetic. The price to pay for that is being so weak I couldn't fight my way out of a wet paper sack.

On a bright note, I have a better power to weight ratio with my V, maybe I can find a few more MPH. LOL!
Getting old sucks!
