Just say no to gastric bypass!
This nation is famous for creating fat citizens and then
making a fortune off getting them slim again, then letting them
yo-yo back and forth, always coming up with the next great
effortless pill, magic (effortless) diet, even an organization
for fat acceptance (read death acceptance).
Nowadays they have Carnie Wilson on infomercials hawking Gastric
Bypass. Please, please, please... if you are considering
this permanent surgery, do all your homework and look at
everything with a critical eye... EVERYTHING. Even what I
say. Look at it, pick it apart, ask questions, get answers
until you are totally satisfied you can live with this your
whole life no matter what. You can't take it back.
Gastric Bypass is forever and it will force lifestyle changes
upon you that if not adhered to you will face larger problems
than you had in the first place.
GIVE ME A TRY FIRST!
Though never morbidly obese myself, I have had morbidly obese
family members and friends my whole life. I've seen their
suffering, felt their embarrassment, cried with them, listened
to their fears... and loved them. I've been close to their
pain and have seen the heartaches and humiliations of being this obese. I know you want a permanent solution.
I know you want a quick solution. I know you want to love
yourself. I know you want other people to love you and
admire you. I know you want so many other things that you
believe are only available to thin people.
BUT... *please* check out all your
options before committing to physical changes of this magnitude.
Give me a try first. Try my way before you consider
this permanently altering surgery. If you succeed on my
program, or any other good program, you will have changed
yourself in ways that will benefit you your whole life. If
you have surgery, you will indeed be changed... but you will
also be special needs as long as you live.
The first step in getting better is
feeling better today.
