Professional golfer John Daly has been getting a lot of press since his return. We've even discussed John Daly's LAP-BAND Surgery on this blog. Partly, it's due to his colorful personality, but it's also because he's down 80 lbs in the six months since his LAP-BAND Surgery.
"I'm a proven fact that you don't have to go run and work out and do all that to lose weight," Daly said. "This Lap-Band thing, this technology is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me."
Though the fast physical changes in his body has meant he's had to adjust his game and work with a teacher, but he says that he feels great, physically.
Daly is such a fan that his 17-year-old daughter also had the procedure, and he reports she has lost 30 pounds in six weeks. In fact, he believes so strongly in the LAP-BAND Procedure that he says it should be part of national health care.
