ABC13 – Losing Weight, Triathlon With Surgeon

Posted on | News | 1 Comment

After dropping 200 pounds, one Houston man is getting ready to participate a sprint triathlon, but he’s not doing it alone. A surgeon who’s been with him every step of the way will be right there beside him during the race.

“I’ve avoided pictures for the last 10 years,” said Marcus Cook.

Cook had long been avoiding the 489-pound man whose weekend highlights included lying around watching movies and overeating.
