Welcome To My Blog!

Hi - My name is Rick. I used to weigh over 400 pounds. In December of 2006, I underwent a form of Weight Loss Surgery known as a Gastric Bypass (R-N-Y). Within a year, I lost about 160 pounds. Here it is three and a half years later and I still have kept the weight off. Some say that I have just transferred my addiction for food into an addiction for working out. There may be some truth to that, but I'm not sure I want to come out and admit it. :-) Anyway you look at it, the surgery is just a tool that gets you started on taking your life back. This blog is about my new journey of life, as I go about "Fixing Rick."
