I just read the most horrifying story I've read in a long time. It is a journal by a woman who had bypass surgery to lose weight, plus follow up surgeries to get rid of the loose skin on the "apron" and butt.

This woman, Patricia, has documented her whole ordeal down to graphic pictures. She went from 400 lbs down to slim. The whole senerio plays out in only about 2 years. She did this because she felt it was her only chance for survival. She was 44 with two small children and she just passed away from all this.

Read this whole story at her web site. If you have ever even considered surgery, this should change your mind.

This has made an impact on me that will last forever!
