A man from Niverville says weight loss surgery is not an easy solution. Ben MacMichael from Niverville underwent weight loss surgery in Brazil last month. His goal is to go from 500 pounds to 250. So far he's lost 31 pounds. He says the experience was harder than he thought but it will be worth it to wear smaller sizes and do activities he thought would not be possible. Since the surgery his eating habits have changed dramatically. The other day he tried a hamburger and could barely eat half of it. MacMichael adds the amount of support he's received from the community has been overwhelming. He adds he could not do this without it.
