Nate Newton former Dallas Cowboy and Minnesota Viking has lost an amazing about of weight since having VSG... I found this video and thought I would share - I am sure Cowboy fans (like Viking fans) could use some inspiration!

Then looks like you were both in very good hands! Sounds like this Dr has a great follow up program as well.

i appreciate that he told the truth about having wls. i find it frustrating when famous people who have struggled in the public eye with obesity suddenly loose a lot of weight and then say they did it with diet and exercise. i think by being straight forward that it serves him well and the public that sees his testimony. that weight loss came with the tool of wls, diet and exercise. there are so many people who would benefit from the knowledge of this procedure. i think there are other famous people who should come out as well. just my thoughts! kelly

Nate Newton, an all time great "Cowboy" - I'm impressed at his workout ability, I dare say it is more in two days than most of us do in ten days, but he is a former NFL player!! :) He looks absolutely awesome! A friend of mine was banded by this doctor, she loves him!

Thank you so much for the link. I have emailed that youtube to all the folks who know about my surgery. What he has accomplished is AMAZING. I think it is something like 175 pounds in 6 months. Now I have a goal to shoot for! ;)

truly amazing and inspirational video

like someone mentioned before, I appreciate that celebrities and public figures come out to admitting they have undergone WLS. Maybe others won't look at it as "weird" :rolleyes:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
