Fad Diet

If you have tried the cabbage soup diet or a diet with boiled eggs and celery there are a few things you should know.   One of the keys to permanent weight loss is life-long changes to your eating habits (also known as a maintenance diet).   There are many choices out there each with their own advantages and disadvantages.   What will work for you depends on your tastes and life style.   Make sure the diet you choose includes healthy choices that you enjoy as well as a few treats now and then.   Here’s a tip, along with dieting drink green tea.   I lost an extra ½ lb per week this way but I drank 3 to 4 quarts per week

Don't forget the importance of nutrition when going on a weight loss regimen.  Unfortunately, our ancestors were able to eat many more calories per day than we are because of the physical hardships they endured growing food and doing house chores without the help of our modern day appliances.  Just think of the energy you would expend if you had to haul all of you water needs from the local creek.

If you think surgery is an easy answer,

You should understand the risks.

Risks can include discomforting symptoms such as vomiting, nausea, sweating, faintness, general weakness, and possibly diarrhea.  Hiccupping and bloating may result if the stomach becomes enlarged. Hernia or ulcers may also develop.  A small number of gastric bypass patients may develop gallstones or nutritional deficiencies (iron, calcium, other vitamins and minerals), which can lead to anemia or osteoporosis if left untreated.  Death or stroke is possible with any surgery. The doctor can help reduce risk by taking special precautions, for example, providing a vitamin-supplement regimen to prevent nutritional deficiencies.  It is important to follow the surgeon's postoperative and long-term plan in order to reduce complications.

Expectations for Weight Loss Surgery
