A gain and a loss


Well Bill gained a pound and Rhonda lost a pound. Bill is at 219 and Rhonda is at 220. It takes time to make permanent changes. Yet this weight loss program is great. They enjoyed a wonderful homemade, whole wheat pizza last Friday and a wonderful homemade, whole wheat noodles lasanga on Wednesday.(Thanks Brandon)
The wheat grinder works again and Rhonda was able to make eight loaves of bread.
There's no starving on this program.
This Monday Bill will be undergoing two surgeries with two surgeons at the same time. Dr. David Peterson and Dr. John McCann will be using their skill and experience to make some changes to Bill's face. They are hoping for a more normal appearance for Bill and also that Bill will be able to see without double vision.
This is a before and after picture of Bill's face after surgery last year. Unfortunatly the stitches inside stretched and his face did not look this good after a few weeks. This time Dr. McCann is going to use cadaver tissue to hold the cheek in place. We will post a before and after picture in a few months when we are sure the tissue will hold.

  1. Rhonda, I love hearing about your menus and the kinds of food you eat.
    Billy, Best wishes on your surgery this week! I'll send some new "angelic voices" songs for you to listen to while you recover.
