No Diet Works on Carol's Obesity | Fat Doctor | Only Human
Carol Flynn weighs 27stone and her health is deteriorating rapidly. Her family fear that she is dying before their eyes, but are anxious about her resorting to surgery. However, Carol believes it is the only option for her and is eagerly awaiting her consultation with Shaw Somers.
28 year old Kathleen Brown is desperate for weight loss surgery. At 21 stone she has tried every diet under the sun, but nothing works for her. She is ready to go through with gastric bypass, but she can 't get NHS funding for the operation. As a last desperate measure, Kathleen 's mum turns the basement into a flat in order to sell it, in a bid to raise the £7,000 needed to pay for the private surgery. But will the band be as successful as Kathleen hopes?
We also meet Jeff O Shea. He is so thrilled with the gastric bypass surgery that helped him shed 15stone that he had the date of the operation tattooed on his arm.
Fat Doctor goes on a remarkable journey following the patients of three of Britain’s most sought after weight loss surgeons. It focuses on the obese patients who undergo the operations and discovers why they became obese and the impact life changing and often life saving weight loss surgery has on their lives. We find out what their lives are like now and how this has affected their physical, social and psychological lives.
