Reality TV Idea

Have WLS patients from talking to their doctors about the different surgeries from then to a year out (for each type of surgery) have a group of people, so you can hear them help each other, encourage each other; to show what we go through on a daily basis. I think this would educate people too. Have doctors show the different surgery types & explain the differences (they can plug in their hospital----as long as they sponsor the program)...then have nutritionists that actually work with WLS patients and even exercise trainers to help minimize saggy whatevers. I would watch it. Someone to explain the whole vitamin & minerals thing and why each are important. If a particular brand wants to promote it's product (another sponsor).People get on their with recipe ideas and things that others struggle with and the food stages.....IT would be cool

TLC did a verson of this called "my 600 lbs life".

Juls

And she died!

I jus****ched 2 shows of the over 600lbs, my life and both people were fine...One was a man (I forgot his name) and the other was Ashley. But I think this reality show would be people 200-400lbs. It would touch more people that could relate to the weight issue.

Use to be a show called "Big Medicine" that did basically that.  Google it, you may be able to see episodes on line.
