[QUOTE="Hooked, post: 410257"] The part of this programme that really had me fuming was when they showed the very overweight lady going in for her stomach reduction surgery and they were pinning all the blame for her weight and need for stomach reduction on her having T2 Diabetes. :evil: Really??!! Having not heard of any other medical problems the lady had, one can only assume that her weight need for a stomach reduction is a result of only one thing - overeating. Surely T2 does not cause someone to over eat to the extent that the person's partner has to give up work in order to care for them and it reaches a stage were a stomach reduction is the only way forward. Blaming it all on her diabetes really made me mad. Yes, there are T2s out there of many different shapes and sizes. In these cases it appears that developing a healthy relationship with food quite possibly could be of benefit in all aspects of their health. But is milkshakes replacing meals really the way to learn this? I dare say when those poor girls fall off the band wagon it will be a lot worse than those who had healthy meals to eat instead. I wonder 6 months down the line how these ladies will be doing. [/QUOTE]
