I'm looking for patients who have had direct experience with undergoing extensive weight control treatement (specifically gastric bypass) for a proposed article in Health.com Magazin. The purpose is to address claims that with this type of surgical intervention, weight loss of 80 - 100% of excess body weight is achievable for most patients, and long-term maintenance of weight loss is very successful. My research indicates so far that patients require adherence to a simple and straightforward behavioral regimen. If anyone would be willing to share experiences, please contact me at cambridgedelight@yahoo.com.

Thanks,
Ken
