Bariatric surgery a success … and then a failure
Four years ago, all eyes watched as a well-known radio personality in my city went under the knife for bariatric surgery. The metropolitan newspaper was there to take full-size “before” and “after” photographs, conduct in-depth interviews, and record the progress over the following months.
This patient/local star, who happens to be a friend of mine, managed to lose over a whopping 100 pounds! I watched, along with thousands upon thousands of readers, as he became a classic success story for drastic weight loss. He followed a strict diet, attended counseling sessions, increased exercise and activity levels, and melted away before our very eyes.
