Yes, it's a step forward (applause) but it's hardly the transformation that the poor fella needs.

Gastirc bypass isn't the quick fix most people think it is.
Once you've had the surgery done, you've got to be very careful about what you eat as over doing it, or not getting enough water etc can cause some major problems.

It's certanly doesn't take as much work as running 10 miles a day and controlling what you eat on your own, but it certainly doesn't mean he didn't work very hard to lose all that weight.
