the bariatric phenomenon is just the medical industry making big bucks off of people because they have insurance which will pay....

while it used to be you needed to be morbidly morbidly obese to get the surgery, now you only need to be somewhat overweight....its insanity...

people shouldn't think that the surgery doesn't have risks...I see plenty of people in the hospital a few yrs or many yrs after the surgery with problem after problem because of what they did to themselves...

low carb..ugh....trying to do it....I've limted my carbs but I can't rid of all them....

Try fasting.

And read Jason Fung’s books.

He’s got a blog somewhere that’s good too.

I got my A1C below 5 again by fasting. And my bp was 100/60

Mainly, just dump the white carbs - sugar, flour, bananas and corn.

Bariatric surgery isn’t the cure all. It does nothing to curb appetites. If someone wants to lose the weight like those who have gone under the knife then just follow the diet. It’s the diet that causes the weight to fall off, not the surgery. When these patients start pigging out, they balloon back up.

Eat more fat. See Dr Berg’s video on my last post.

Getting rid of ALL carbs is not practical.

Severely limiting your carb intake is the key.
