Sure enough, in the 18 months since the wedding, she's put 35 pounds back on, and that's while she's been exercising regularly as well as not being able to eat large amounts due to the small stomach.
Oh, jeez. Your poor sister.

Apparently Google street view is going to taking pictures in Halifax in the next few weeks. I so want to rent some kind of giant cupcake costume and just hang around and try to end up in some pics.

you should put big "HI Google" signs in your front yard.
lunch from home was unsatisfying, but filling. I think I need to go buy some little dessert.

If you have lap-band surgery, the band can be adjusted from the outside to allow for more food to enter the stomach. Also, it can be removed relatively easily. However, if you have gastric-bypass (which my sister did), it completely rearranges the stomach and makes it permanently smaller.

Compassionately intolerant
there's no guarantee that it'll keep you thin
A male contestant on Biggest Loser is post lap band surgery and came in at nearly 400 lbs. Something about the way the surgery went...and subesquent skin removals, I suspect, have left him looking like a giant armadillo. Plus, his health is shot.
Personally, I know two people for whom gastric bypass was a boon, but it seems there are a lot of people for whom it doesn't create lasting effects.
