Dr. Oz On Tv Right Now Promoting Gastric Bipass Surgery



Recommended Posts

I think you may be jealous of his "not manly body". He is fit, slim and eats right!! What we all should be doing.

Jealous?!? Hardly. For a doctor, he always looks sickly. I'd rather be fat than skeletal.

Ouch! I can take him or leave him. I do find his "teasers" misleading. I have tried certain herbal weightloss things he has promoted (generically, of course" and i found them a waste of money.

I like Dr. Oz when I'm at the gym and there is nothing else to watch. I will be watching the show at 4:00 p.m that's when it will air here in CA. It might be an older show but I think it will be interesting to hear what they have to say.

I like him. He tries to inform/help with his show. No one is ever going to please us 100% all of the time. I think his show is informative.

Also, I don't judge people by their looks, that would make me a hypocrite.

I did like the episode. I also think that they do not talk about the sleeve so much because it hasn't been around as long as the bypass. Even my Dr. said they only have information that goes back 3 years. And a person who has diabetes and is over 100 lbs. overweight will have more success at getting rid of diabetes with a bypass.

Yeah, because being self-righteous is a better way to go.

I could care less if you think he is ugly or skinny, whatever it was you said, I do care if people judge me or others by their looks and its hurtful so therefore since I feel that way, I stated that I do not judge people by their looks.

How is that holier than thou or self righteous..

Geez

I don't watch Dr. Oz because he's always on when I am working. However, I admire anyone who would dedicate their entire life to the betterment of others. It's commendable. Having said that.... I am very glad he spoke about WLS, because I seriously do believe that WLS is best chance possible for most people to lose and keep off the weight as long as they by into the program and follow the guidelines.

He talked about the sleeve (spider surgery) on his show earlier this year. And he was all for it!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
