There are a couple other places that may get you some more people who have toured. On BikeForums there is a Touring group, there is also an amazing website for people doing big tours called Crazy Guy on a Bike (guyonabike.com). There is a forum on there that has a lot of vary accomplished touring cyclists from all sorts of back grounds. You might be able to get some great advise there too. It is worth heading over there simply to read journals and find inspiration as it is really fun to live vicariously through others amazing trips.

Sorry I do not have any advise specific to weight loss surgery, I do not know much about returning to riding after the fact so I will leave it at that.

Best of luck! I am sure it is more than doable with the right research and training.
