My brother and I come from a family of tall and big people, high blood pressure, and other health problems. Well our dad was killed in a car accident on June 1st of 1998, he always wanted us to be healthy and happy. Dad always tried to talk to us about loseing weight, well I made dad a promise one day I would go on a diet, well I could not lose weight by my self, so Jan. 14th of last year I had gastric bypass, and so far I have lost about 180 to 190 pounds. My brother thought that was not a good thing to do cause it is a risky thing to do, but he don't seem to realize it is more risky to be that big. My brother is 6ft 4 and is pretty big about 400-450 pounds, me and mom worry so much about him, but if we try to talk to him about it he gets so mad. would you please pray that our heavenly father will bless him and let him see that he needs to do something to lose this weight, before it gets to late, in Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
