[QUOTE="Scardoc, post: 1287260, member: 44692"] Ok, a literal translation but the point I was making is that our advanced modern society has the ability now to carry out bariatric surgery as though its no big deal. It’s a convenient way to try and fix a long term problem with short term results. The hard way is to lose weight naturally. “Lose some weight” is not a useless piece of advice in itself, but, in reality, how to lose the weight is a very personal issue. We are all individuals and for some it could be as simple as portion control, exercise or calorie counting but for others it could be counselling to overcome psychological problems that lead to weight gain or, in extreme cases, where all else has failed or is not possible…….bariatric surgery. Hell, the Eatwell Plate could well work brilliantly for some depending on what they currently eat! But for me, something as extreme as surgery and which does not have a 100% success rate should be restricted for those cases that require it. The Oxford Uni study in the news today where Doctors bring up the fact someone is overweight and offer help is very interesting and has promising results. [/QUOTE]
