I know somebody who got bariatric surgery and ended up mega fat again a year later. Obesity is often not a deliberate choice, but it is a product of lifestyle decisions in almost all cases.
Even though I have never been overweight last year I lost 25 pounds in 3 months by eating more food, not working out, and vastly increasing my fat intake. The secret sauce was eliminating carbs 6 days a week and slightly increasing my water intake. Avoiding drugs also helps including caffeine and nicotine.
- aantix 8y agoThe lap band's long term performance is terrible - the sleeve and Roux-en-Y perform well long term with most patients keeping the weight off even 10 years later. Weight loss isn't the fundamental issue at play - it's permanent weight loss. Most individuals in their life are able to clean up their diets enough to lose weight, but maintaining that weight loss indefinitely for a lifetime, an overwhelming majority fail at it.
