My name is Mike and I decided to have weight loss surgery after about 12 years of fighting to lose weight. I started putting weight on after I tore the ACL in my right leg and was never able to get it off even after dieting and exercising. At the time of my injury I was 220 lbs and was in very good shape. I decided to have the surgery because I found myself shying away from doing things with my childeren that I had always loved to do. I also wanted to ensure that I would be around longer for them.
