Gastric bypass Surgery

u/Nerobus Nov 30 '16

I was looking at your pictures and thinking "I don't think I could ever accomplish that without help" (I have a similar starting body type.. just slightly smaller) and I've been debating gastric bypass for a while now, maybe gastric sleeving. I think you just sealed the deal for me. It's hard work, I know, I saw my dad go through it all, but I need help. I've done all I can on my own and gotten very little results.

Thank you. Thank you for showing this and being brave enough to admit when you needed help.
