I am a 45 year old male who weighs 335. My medical and lifestyle conditions include total knee joint replacements in both knees, Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Excessive Daytime Sleepiness, Fatty Liver, Bipolar II Disorder, Disabled, Unemployed and cannot Drive. In summary, I have to walk with a cane, sleep a majority of the day, rely on others for transportation, and have emotional problems.
I am a former college football player and power weightlifter. My goal is to begin weightlifting and to lose 100 pounds using one of the Bariatric tools.
My Doctor recommended Gastric-Bypass due to my medical and lifestyle conditions.
After research and attending both Lap-Band and Gastri-Bypass courses, I am still not sure on which surgery to recieve.
