My story pretty much goes the same as so many of us...... I have pretty much always been a lean mean fighting machine struggling to get the hell out of this fat guy suit I seem to have been gifted with for the majority of my adult life.   And finally after trying to figure out what the hell has gone wrong with the washing machine and why it keeps shrinking all of my clothing I have just reached the conclusion that I really don't, and didn't have any other choice.  So I started looking into Gastriac Bypass, well there was a wealth of information on the web, I didn't even know where to start.  Should I drive to Mexico and go for the El Cheapo Special......  probably not.  Hmmmm ... So a friend of mine was also looking unbeknownst to me and he suggested Shasta Regional.....  Wow!!   I was totally impressed with these folks from the start.  So I mentioned all of this to my partner at work and he too also got interested and and began researching the option....He is unfortunately stuck with the Kaiser Insurance Hoops and Circles dilema and is wading his way thru.

I must say I have been very fortunate and lucky to have dodged all of the weight related problems that most of my family have experienced, so hopefully I am taking control of my own destiny and will prevent a lot of those issues from ever coming to light.
