Shedding the pounds
After 40 days of diet and strict exercise, Kenneth has lost 12 stones and is ready for his first operation. After five hours, only the right leg tumour has been removed, weighing over three stones. In the months leading up to his gastric bypass surgery, the remaining fatty deposits are removed from his left thigh and abdomen, reducing his body weight by 15 stones.
