I've been on a diet since August, Roy. Back then, I weighed 350 pounds.
Since then, I've managed to bring it down to 283, but the doctor says that the ideal weight for someone my age and height is 160.
I'm very nervous about any kind of surgery, and I don't like the idea of weight loss medication, the other option he's giving me. I'm on enough pills as it is.
But thanks for your concern.
