Stay Off My Operating Table

I was a morbidly obese heart surgeon.


All through high school, college, med school and surgical training, I followed the U.S. dietary guidelines for both diet and exercise.  Yet nothing I did kept the weight off. 


I just kept getting fatter and fatter.

Each day in surgery, I would split open the chests of people just like me. I knew I was heading for the operating table myself if I didn't find solutions that worked.
