| Abstract | In this episode we meet Guy Poingdestre, a 52 year-old bus driver whose weight has reached 32 stone. At the moment he can't stop eating Kentucky fried chicken. He says he has a 'psychological compulsion to overeat'. As a result of Guy's weight, he also suffers from sleep apnoea, a condition that stops his breathing when he's asleep. Guy has spent years trying to diet, and has sometimes been successful. He achieved a Weight Watchers plaque when he was 37, for losing 8st -- and managing to get down to 13st. But success with diets has always been short-lived. Will the operation save him? |
