I commend anyone that has battled with obesity and won!!! Great job. My husband battled with it from grade school and just delt with it because he was treated so rudely by so many doctors. He & I researched gastric bypass surgery for years and we were never quite sure it was right. But then we had a son and a great reason for my husband to live for as long as he could. We, wrongly, believed that our son would be able to deal with daddy's weight. And he didn't seem to care until a friend at daycare made fun of him because dad is fat. My 4 year old was so devistated that he made me promis that daddy would not pick him up from school again.

That was the last straw. After pushing his doctor, my husband was finally recommended for the surgery. He has lost 220 lbs since June 2007. He has never been this healthy and his confidence has increased 10 fold.

I am sure I over reacted a bit with some previous comments, but I have heard so many, from so many people, that he should have done it "the right way". This was the right way for him and the BEST thing that he has ever done for us. We are so very proud of him.
