If you are realy serious about loseing weight then you need to go to to website below and fill out the info. This will give me some info to go by to help you and get you on a plan. If you did have the surgery they would tell you to go on a high protein diet with fiber. Guess what I can customize you a plan to get all of your nutrition and keep you satisfied. Plus you will get all of your protein and fiber. You will be able to enjoy your favoriet foods and get healthier.

yes u can loose wt even if you don't exercise because you will have to take less intake of calories which you require for the entire day

you have to eat something, unlike the other comment. You would go to the hospital if you did that. Eat a fat free low cal dry cereal in the morning. Only the serving size or less. For lunch eat a fat free yogurt and a 100 calorie baggie of your choice(they are at the supermarkets) with water, and for dinner have a salad with vinegar. Not Italian or ranch, or even fat free ranch. They are all high in Calories. To loose that amount of weight in that short period of time, you have to burn double the amount of calories you intake. For your beverage choice, no diet soda, regular sodas, juices, or anything, except WATER! and drink a lot of it because it will flush out your body and help you loose weight. it will also give you the extra vitamins and minerals you need. \n\nGood luck! I hope that I helped you out!

If you are more than 100 pounds overweight you should qualify for gastric by-pass surgery. My mother had this surgery and has lost more than 150 pounds so far. Although she has had no complications, there are some people who have. So, it is not without risk, but it is something to think about. I know how frustrating it can be to feel like you have so much weight to lose and to feel like doing it 1-2 pounds at a time is completely overwhelming. \n\nI wish you luck in whatever you decide!

There is no way a plastic surgeon will do this.  Normally when lipo is done it isn't used to "lose weight."  It is done to "shape" the body. No insurance company will ever pay for lipo...it is cosmetic...gastric bypass on the other hand, is done because the persons life is in danger and they will die if the surgery is not done....

I have not had this surgery but as a nutritionist/dietician college student I have studied a lot about it and would not recommend it to many people; especially without going through all of the other options first.  That is diet and exercise.  This is the way that weight should be lost because it is natural.  Gastric bypass is something not natural so that is why it is so serious, and they still do not know the long term effects of it.  I have known two people to die of gastric bypass surgery because of the results of the surgery afterwards.  It is very serious and has many side effects.  Also, if the person who is having the surgery uses food as their comfort then they are likely to go into deep depression after surgery.  Sorry to give a lot of cons.   Only your doctor can tell you exactly what is right for you.  See a Registered Dietician AND an M.D. Be careful of the doctor that you choose; some are just out for money and will tell you to go for surgery so they can just have more money.

if you arent starving yourself, then there is no reason for you to not want dinner. If you are watching what you eat then eat lightly... but don't skip meals....EVER.  That may seem to work for weight loss when your younger, but it catches up to you as you get older because meal skipping messes up your metabolism..  Your body is designed to get re fueled every few hours... so dont skip... eat smaller portions.

You could have surgery like liposuction...\n\nBut still, you really need exercise to maintain the weight that you lost because if you have surgery but dont exercise, you'll get fat again. :(\n\nYou can also try slimming pills and tablets but make sure that it is safe and approved by the Bureau of Food and Drugs. :)

Because when you have gastric by pass you cant just think just by doing that, you will lose weight. You have to eat right and still exercise in order for it to work. If you do nothing and still eat like you did before the surgery then your stomach will stretch back out and it wont work. Thats why.

Gastric Bypass - which I think is dangerous & unnecessary unless one is morbidly obese

Sure you can, but it is not healthy. You can lose weight by eating only candy, but you don't want to. Not only do they have vitamins and minerals you can't find in other foods, they are a very good source of fiber. \n\nSo eat your veggies!

No, liposuction is an elective surgery. Some insurances do cover gastric bypass, though, if you're morbidly obese.

If you don't have time to exercize, then you'll have to reduce your caloric intake significantly. Diet and exercize are the only two ways to reduce fat without having surgery.

I can't believe how people can be so rude.  If you are skinny you cannot possibly imagine what it's like to be heavy.  It just gets to the point where can't even move enough to even get exercise.\n\nWith gastric bypass surgery, most of the stomach is removed and can't be put back.\n\nBanding just puts an elastic band around part of your stomach so you will feel full sooner.  It can be reversed with minor surgery.\n\nLook on the back of your HMO card and call the number.  They can easily tell you if it would be covered.  You should know, though, that there is  a six-month process you have to go through in order to qualify.  You have to stick to a diet for a while and show that you can control your eating to some degree.  Also there is counseling to see if you are capable of dealing with the operation.\n\nMichael michaelsgreene@yahoo.com
