I too have lost a tremendous amount of weight (with the help of surgery). I've been told I took the easy way out. Sit with me for an hour and I'll tell you JUST how NOT easy it's been.
I wouldn't change it for the world though

I went from 302 to 136 this morning. Surgery was extremely radical. Biliopancreatic Diversion with a Duodenal Switch.
I had surgery in 2005. Have never gained an ounce throughout the journey.
