I am 43 years old and have severe arthritis in both knees and I need knee replacement surgery. My knee doctor wants me to lose 100 pounds before he will do this surgery. He recommended me for Bariatric surgery after attempts to lose and more importantly keep the weight off had failed. I am scheduled for surgery on July 9th. I am looking forward to losing weight and then having the knee surgery so that I can be an active part of my children's lives without being in constant pain.
