OMG you guys were so awesome.  I am so proud of you both.  My heart was just pounding.  Good for you both for telling your stories!  I shed a few tears as well.  I can't wait to see you at the next M & G. 
Congratulations ! You guys ROCK!!!

 I am in total agreement both of you were awesome. Your stories brought tears to my eyes as I could relate to your stories. It's amazing to me how everything gets so much easier affer surgery.  People need to be educated that obesity is a disease and the surgery is not the easy way out.  We have struggled our whole lives. This is just a tool. You both are an inspiration to us as we go through this journey. Looking forward to seeing you both at the M & G.  

I jus****ched it with my hubby (online) and I got so emotional! Thank you for being so much braver than I am and sharing your story.
I am really wishing I could come to the next m and g...especially so I can congratulate you in person. To bad we can't squeeze one in before spring break!!

What? No pic?  :)

Thanks for sharing your stories with all of us, very brave of you.  You should be proud of what you've accomplished.  I am so glad that the news picked up on this important topic.  I had my surgery in Alberta as Manitoba did not offer it at the time, so happy that Manitobans can access this and we need to make sure it stays accessible (and opens up for men as well).

I also listened to the program on cbc. You guys were amazing, I wanted to cry too! My life has changed so much because of this surgery...

Here's the radio link. Is there a video link of part 2 and 3, I found a clip on facebook?
