I don't consider myself overweight just a foot too short I could stand to lose a few.

Even though they show 2 hernias I am almost convinced that is not what was causing all of my pains. The last 2 or 3 days I have been mostly pain free even with more manual labor. I believe it is a partial blockage of my intestines. Every time I eat I get bloated and have discomfort for several hours then it goes away. Have to go back to the doc to discuss more. At some point the hernias will have to be addressed though.

Most women like the strong, silent type… Fortunately for me, my wife prefers the out-of-shape, mouthy type.
