Stomach bypass surgery? Good or Bad
My sister, who is a "little person" (midget) is extremely overweight and will be going thru the 6 weeks prep class to have this surgery done.... I'm very apprehensive abt her doing this but she cannot exercise because of her bad knees... Her diet hasn't been the greatest either... Do you know of anyone that went thru this type of surgery and what was the outcome?

My Hubby's brother's wife had the surgery. She is type 1 diabetic and needed to lose weight to get clearance for a safer pregnancy. She did it and now has 2 children. Her weight is now high again because she did not change her core habits over the long term. It was a short term solution.
