...shoes, tie, shirt, pants,...as well.

Looks as though his stomach/intestine reduction surgeries for weight loss 15 years ago haven't worked too well, either.

Rep. Nadler to undergo second surgery for weight loss

WASHINGTON (AP) -- New York Rep. Jerrold Nadler will have a second round of stomach-reduction surgery to speed up his weight loss.

Nadler, a Manhattan Democrat, underwent the first procedure almost a year ago, and he has since shed about 75 pounds.

"I certainly am doing a lot more walking and so forth,'' said Nadler, who at 5'4'' once weighed 338 pounds. "I didn't take the subway before because I didn't want to walk the stairs -- now I take the subway all the time.''

Nadler's surgery, to be performed in New York, will complete the second part of a two-phase procedure. The first operation removed part of his stomach, a procedure aimed at making a patient feel full after eating a small amount.

The second surgery involves bypassing a section of the small intestine, making it harder for the body to absorb nutrients and calories from food.
