Since undergoing lap-band surgery in February 2013, Gov. Chris Christie, R-N.J., has been "losing weight steadily," according to a medical history report released Friday by the governor's cardiologist, Dr. Rachana Kulkarni.
"Governor Christie has normal blood work, normal cardiovascular test results, and good functional capacity," the report concluded. "He has no medical limitations and is fit to serve as the Governor of the state of New Jersey."
The report also commended Christie for taking a "proactive role in his health" by adopting a "healthy diet" and exercising four times weekly.
The report did not indicate how much weight Christie has lost, but the governor told "CBS Sunday Morning" in September that he is "more than halfway" to his goal.Read the rest of the story HERE.

Just my opinion, but this type of treatment for weight loss is the worst possible option. The way to lose weight is to eat right and exercise. It's simple science, and if you do it, it works. People with this surgery end up with A LOT more discomfort, health risks and trouble than if they had just buckled down and done a proper weight loss program. Christie doesn't seems like a weak man, but I'm truly baffled as to why an otherwise healthy person would go the desperate route and risk his health for the rest of his life rather than do it the right way.
It doesn't speak well for Gov Christie, IMO.

Like you said, it's just your opinion.
He does appear to be thinner...from the neck down.
yes, his weight is really affecting his ratings in 'conservative' SC:
