Diet Discussions - View Single Post - Anyone here gone through weight loss surgery?

Cricket..............the answer isn't having surgery. The side effects are huge.........and for life! When I decided to make a lifestyle change (I worked with a doctor), my girlfriends (3) got gastric bypass surgery. They lost weight quickly, but they all levelled off at about 80-90 pounds...and once they figured out how to adapt their eating, they started to gain it back.

Finally their surgeon told them that they needed to exercise and eat better..........in other words make a lifestyle change!! There is a better way.........I made the change.........and the weight has been off for over a year, but I couldn't have done it without the right team.
