[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1890167, member: 196960"] The programme referred to is the programme you have to be educated on before you can have the op but op not compulsory. Education sessions are. Psychologist for eating disorders too. Op... No. I've agreed op from the start as I'm no idiot to nutrician or diets nor how my body works, not works in my case. Milk shakes worked for me decades ago and I'm losing on them again but starvation is very very unpleasant and dangerous for my insulin and heart meds so I need a more permanent, working weight loss that I can manage into old age. I need managed starvation to get weight off, then maintenance on low calorie and low carb eating....for life. Without pain of hunger and self loathing at failing to stick to low cals and low carb eating. The self loathing is the worst and most dangerous of it all. Unnecessary and preventable. With nhs support. Its not for everyone. Just those who obesity is killing them and the operation can change that around, for me. Maybe the nhs cannot afford to put every overweight or obese but not morbidly obese person on the programme? I cannot see anywhere where it says only morbidly obese but in our area, it is. 1:3 or higher are obese in Sunderland but you ask how well the comfort foods sell it is enormous. Still have alot of domestic abuse in Sunderland and very bad high carb ready available foods. Supermarkets are full of it but I go for frozen veg and cabinet is empty. Morrisons and Lidl. :( [/QUOTE]
