Davison man loses 250 pounds in 16 months through surgery, exercise

Brian Dunaway looks at pictures of himself weighing almost 500 pounds and admits he never realized how big he was.

Now at a muscular 264 pounds, the 31-year-old Davison man looks back on himself just 16 months ago and he says he won?t ever let himself gain that much weight again. ?I was depressed,? said Dunaway. ?If I wouldn?t have lost the weight it would have killed me.? Plagued by bad feet from his weight and pre-hypertension and pre-diabetes, Dunaway said he made the decision to lose the weight because of his two sons, Hunter and Austin. On Valentine?s Day 2008 he underwent lap band bariatric surgery at Hurley Medical Center in Flint ? having already lost weight to prepare for the surgery he was at a formidable 417 pounds.
