Sumo Sinatra - A Gastric Bypass Surgery Success

Author: Craig Thompson

Standing on stage at the Place Saint-Bart in central London, giving more than 14,000 cheering fans, all I could think was, "How a guy like me, go to a place like this? "It was June 2001 and I played alongside renowned artists as Tony Bennett and Paul McCartney on the part of the celebration of Queen Elizabeth Golden Jubilee. He was probably more surprised that any member of the public event. I had only started singing last year, the culmination of a professional indescribable emotional and psychological journey that began in the spring of 1997 when he underwent gastric bypass surgery.

I wore a size of canary yellow zoot suit 40 regular concert Queen, strutting and confidence on stage singing classic big band to an audience of thousands. After five years and one month a few have left me breathless. At that time, she weighed just 400 kilos and I've lost all hope. My life had become unmanageable. I stopped at the hospital and said that "physical bankruptcy" as I turned my body into the team of doctors and nurses has offered me the chance again.

Like many patients of gastric bypass surgery, who have been overweight most of my life. As a child I was euphemistically called "Husky", and I managed to use my weight to my advantage to play football from the second year. But by middle school coaches had to do without the level of the league, because I was more heavier than other kids my age. In the league after my team mates just called me fat and I was relegated to the position of BENCHWARMER. I could not have been more unfortunate.

After high school, I joined the Navy, hoping that I could see the world and all he had to offer. Shortly after that the training camp I was assigned at the northern tip of Japan as a liaison between military police and local police in Japan. For a little fun and year, I signed for the team of grassroots football. Ironically, a month later, the mayor and the commander of the base have been watching a game when a knock at the crazy idea to recruit me in the sport of sumo. (You know, the kinds of fat in diapers?) I attended my first practice the next day and was on the circuit amateur wrestling sumo few weeks later, acting as a sort of goodwill ambassador to Japan, while competing in several cities.

Hello I was one morning while getting ready for work. I listened to Good Morning America TV when I went to my usual routine, my ears and cheered as Charlie Gibson read a report on a new radical surgery for morbid obesity. Immediately read everything I could get my hands on this new technique of gastric bypass, and finally qualified for surgery after diagnosis of sleep apnea. Three months after hearing the report on the morning news, was admitted to hospital weight loss after surgery.

After surgery, weight loss, weight truly just melted. I've lost almost 200 pounds in one year and could not believe the transformation that I saw before my eyes as I dropped a waist of 56 inches in only 34 inches. The biggest challenge meantime, do not cut food or increase my physical activity, but rather the lack of mental and emotional support available to weight loss patients.

Because surgery gastric bypass is still a new procedure, there was no support groups or help centers for those of us who had undergone treatment. Doctors were great on the mechanics of the surgery, but had no idea what was inside a brain that had just been through such a radical change. I urged my surgeon establish a regular meeting of their patients so they can share their experience and knowledge with others. Today, his weekly sessions regularly attract 20-100 pre-and post-patients op. (Also made my own website for gastric bypass patients this year and I work in self-help book for people who have had surgery.)

I realized that the weight has really never been the problem but rather a symptom of other problems. Although thank you for surgical weight loss and transformation that followed, I discovered that I could never be a solution, because it was a remedy applied to a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual problem. How to take aspirin for the pain of a brain tumor, gastric bypass covered only the most superficial serious illness. Now I realize that the accuracy to go to the root of the problem, I had to stop focusing on my tower in size, and begin to focus on the gray matter between my ears. So what we really want? Now that the fat suit was gone, I remained with me, but I do not know what "I" was.

In the four years since its decision to continue my dreams out on three continents, appeared in the local media and national partners with celebrities. I created three set-up of my 17-piece big band and one in Dallas, one in London and Tokyo and has recorded a critically acclaimed CD.

"How can a guy like me get to a place like this?"
