Is it WORTH having this surgery for the sole purpose of NOT being able to eat crap?
Pepper123 replied to bangbangbarbie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Let me say this...don't know where u got your info from... but having a bypass does not mean u don't eat "crap"...I personally know someone who had a Gastric bypass and gained 50% of the weight back or more..She maintain the weight for about 2years maybe more...Then the weight all came back...Please remember we all ALL human what started out great for her sticking to the healthy plan just did not stick.... if u have determination it must be for a life style and life time...no matter the surgery u choose...The dumping is horrible... if u are tempted to eat Crap so u choose a surgery that makes u dumped? a tad strange to me. Weight loss surgery is a tool not a solution, good luck!!! -

This is soo true the surgery is just a part of it...the struggles continue this is not easy and people think its an easy way out...Trust if i stayed home and watch Tele and not go walking or the Gym the weight would not move...Its winter here and the weather is horrible but every after work i ski ..slid to the Gym...The temptations are there but i fight them every day....Good luck to you !!! -

Fat People programs
Pepper123 replied to gowalking's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I avoided these shows...but after surgery i started watching...The guy who got u in shape in a year had an episode which made me cry...A young lady had soo much confidence or seems to.. Had no support from her mum and grand-mum...even the first meet they all sit around having fast food while the trainer was there...But she hid it all with a beautiful smile i just thought the pain she's hiding...I know i hid behind my beautiful face and the fact that oh am intelligent !!!.but the pain run deep.. -
