just a few thoughts....

Oct 01, 2009

I really think i'm about to piss off alot of people but.... Why do pople have this surgery? I see alot of people who really are'nt that overweight and with really no major health issues having the surgery.. but why? I look back at the people who had surgery when I did and most are'nt around and those that are, are trying to figure out how to loose the weight they put back on over the years... I see people who get so impatient over the waiting process and all the things you need to do to have the surgery and wonder why not put that much effort into the gym? It seems like people really don't see the long term mental and physical issues related to having this surgery.. this is not a quick fix to something that took years to do...

None of us got fat overnight and none of us will loose it overnight.. we all loose at diffrent rates and once you have the surgery you then realize how mental this all is... a smaller stomach does'nt mean your not hungry, that you don't crave and want food.... You just have to learn will power and maybe instead of surgery people should work on having alittle will power now.. surgery is'nt the answer to why you're fat you are.... we all need to look at ourselves and face what made us eat and what issues we have.. surgery can't do that for us and just having surgery can't keep the weight off of us.. it's a choice we make.. obviously the ones who gain it back have more issues than weight.. if someone can't make the decision to put down the cheeseburger and icecream then how can someone committ to such a drastic change of life both physically and mentally??
