Liposuction, tummy tucks, gastric bypass, implanted electrical devices... every day there is another surgical "solution" to obesity. There are many reasons not to undergo surgery, and only one reason to try it: you'll die if you don't. My goal in this article is not to describe every surgical procedure and describe the pros and cons of each one. There are certain commonalities to all surgical weight loss opoerations, and it is this common ground that I base my arguments on. Anaesthetic Complications Morbidly obese people - the only people who should even consider surgery, are the highest at risk for complications to surgery due to anaesthetic. The weight of fat pressing downward on the chest and the belly mean that the lung capacity is diminished. When you're lying down for the surgery, this weight is directly downward on your lungs, which means that when you are "put under", it is very difficult to keep you breathing. This is the same reason why some obese people have sleep apnea, the airway closes during sleep due to the pressure, so they suffocate a little bit at night. That effect is more severe with the use of anaesthetics. Compounding this problem, deep vein thrombosis is twice as common among obese people. This is a blood clot within a vein. Since general anaesthetics operate through the bloodstream, thrombosis is a major complication because it restricts blood flow. Being immobile for surgery can also make existing clots worse, even while getting rid of your belly fat. Chances are you don't need surgery or its complications: visit The Best Weight Loss Program for Men Changes Aren't Permanent Do you think you get to eat whatever you want after having any of the fat-reduction surgeries? Think again! People who are recovering from any surgery are put on a strict diet to help them heal. Believe me, it is much less appetizing than the Mr. Weightless Plan. Once you've recovered, though, you can eat whatever you want, right? No way. Your doctor will put you on a special diet so that you don't gain the weight back. If you don't follow the diet, you'll see the pounds start packing on very quickly. Your body is used to being at a certain weight, and will try to maintain that, even after surgery. This is physiological and psychological. You will gravitate towards your former weight through Adaptation. Read more about this phenomenon in my article: Adaptation. So, if you're going to be put on these special disagreeable diets anyway, why pay all the money for the surgery unless you absolutely have to? You're going to have to diet after anyway, so why not try my fast weight loss diet before trying surgery? Expensive Okay, so you're a movie star, and you can afford to get facelifts and lipo once a year to keep you looking great. I think it's a bad idea for your health, but if you're rich, then that's your prerogative. But what about the rest of us? Are you really going to save for months or years to afford your surgery? Compare the price of my guaranteed products (and let's not forget exercising is free) with surgery that will cost $5,000.00 or more. Seriously, where's the competition? If my plan doesn't work, you get your money back. If you regain the weight after the surgery, will the doctor give your money back? No way... he'll offer to do more surgery for more money. For my part, the issue is clear: some people are morbidly obese and will die within months if they do not have immediate surgery. There is no doubt that they must have it right away. For everyone else, from the pleasantly plump to the beer-bellied, there is a better way. Do not subject yourself to high risks and high costs and end up put on a horrible diet in the end. Take the mature step and do what's best for you: start a program that will get you losing fat naturally, quickly, safely and enjoyably. Just delay your decision one month. In that month, try the Weightless Plan. You'll see how easy losing weight is. |
