i wish i could have surgery to remove my weight, not a bypass or anything, lipo to suck out the fat and a tummy tuck to rid the stretched skin. it would make transferring myself much easier. my last doc would not help me 'until i can walk' yeah right, the legs don't move cos the brain ain't talking to them not becaust they are too fat! lets hope i get more help from my new one.

I know a man who had his stomach reduced, he lost quite a bit of weight initially, but instead of eating healthy small meals he took the idea that whatever he ate should be what he enjoyed and that was puddings and chocolate! soon he stopped losing weight and as he stretched his stomach again by over eating he began putting weight back on! ok he is still smaller than when he started, but i doubt it will be long before he is back to the beginning.
