Subject: I worked with a woman in the medical field who had the GP surgery. She lost a ton of weight but put it and more back on. It takes a lot ofdicscipline after this kind of surgery or you just stretch the stomach right back out again. IMO her insurance company should ask for their money back cause now they are paying for all of her medical issues caused by her obesity again.

[> [> [> the part I don't get is the reason you lose weight after surgery is because you eat LESS and more frequently - So - do that without the surgery and you'll lose the same amount of weight - -- chris k, 20:04:49 06/11/11 Sat [1]

[> [> [> [> It´s the brain. Essentially, the stomach signals the brain when it´s full, so you´re not hungry anymore. That signal doesn´t get there, or too late, when the stomach is all stretched out. So a smaller stomach, that doesn´t hold so much food, will leave you less hungry much earlier. Of course (unfortunately for those that do not change their eating habits permanently) you can "train" it again to hold more food... -- Jam, 03:51:25 06/12/11 Sun [1]
