Is there any sin which junk science will not explain away?
Having had gastric bypass surgery 5+ years ago, I have since always said that there is a physiologic chemical change in my body that allowed me to lose the weight and keep it off (210 lbs). Sure, my stomach is smaller, and I don’t absorb as many nutrients as before. But an even greater influence is that of the “chemical change”; I no longer have a constant urge to eat, and I know when I’m full. I know there are a lot of people here who are skeptical (”junk science”), but I have personally experienced this phenomenon.
I had the nicest cupcake for dessert last night.... heaped high with some sort of frosting, and a messerschmidt cherry on top...
