[QUOTE="Trim, post: 54283, member: 14916"] Dennis Maybe it should have a political thread or even an ideas thread. For a start encourage government to give cash or prizes for people to lose weight, stop smoking or control their blood sugar. Even a MBE or knighthood for an average Joe Bloggs who does his bit to help the NHS to save money and improve the nation's health. Making it really 'sexy' to stop being a couch potato. Being on TV ( Who wants to be A millionaire?) having tickets for shows and sport venues for friends and family. Unfortunately unlike you, 95% of dieters fail and Doctors and dietitians are of limited use the 'endobarrier' (I so wish I could get one now instead of ten years) seems to be a blessing for those who can't get past the [b]starvation mode stop[/b] who find it easier to stick to a diet at the beginning, when they are consistently losing weight, until their body adapts and has a big increase and they give up. Three months to a year of losing weight with the Endobarrier and say a low carb diet should be enough to reduce 'cravings' as well as diabetes and making one slimmer. Even if it is necessary to have the endobarrier taken out after that time the patient would have learnt new eating habits. Who exactly did I have a [b]go[/b] at? [/QUOTE]
