Like it or not, the words fat and lazy typically go together. When it comes to weight loss there's no room for an ounce of lazy. It's all about being active, assertive, in control, and proactive.
I guess that's why an ad for bariatric surgery that boasted "FROM SIZE 26 to SIZE 6" made me a little concerned.
First, no one I know has had those results. Usually they go from a 26 to a size 16/18. No shame in those numbers, but 26 to 6?? Really??
Second, bariatric surgery is an easy way out. Where's the blood, sweat and tears? Where's the guts and all the glory? Where's the good feeling that comes from knowing that you came, you burned fat and conquered?
How do you feel about bariatric surgery? Easy way out or viable option for major weight loss?

Bariatric surgery has some really awful side affects which are rarely metnioned. The results are always measured in dress size. I am not a number. I am a happy, healthy, active woman.
ReplyDeleteA dear friend of mine had it done and it is saving her life. She did it after many years of loosing and regaining the same weight again and again. I was so skeptical when she told me but its been nearly a year and she look fantastic and is happier than I have EVER seen her. She has always been active but now she is able to be as active as she has always wanted to be. Before surgery she was in a lot of pain when she would exercise for as long as she wanted too. Now she feels good and can go further, faster. I am glad she did it and very happy she had such a great outcome.
