Citation for a study...
I'm riting a paper and doing a presentation for a class of mine. I need the source (or at least any reputable source) for a statistic I've read about. I could swear I saw it in one of the WLS books I own, but can't seem to find it.
The statistic is something like: ~80% of morbidly obese people succeed long term with RNY (maybe just general WLS) while only ~2-5% succeed with even the best diet and exercise programs.
I found it on a couple different websites but I know the actual study, or at least an actual book that cites the study beter is out there. I just need some help finding it. Someone must know something about it!
Thanks in advance for the help!
