Description

If you are considering bariatric or weight-loss surgery, please read about my experiences with two such procedures before making a decision. My charismatic surgeon was an egomaniac practicing on human patients in the early years of surgical intervention for obesity and the extreme health problems that accompany it.

Much progress had been made in the medical industry for the intervention of weight related disease and to fight fat. However, the specific procedures I had are still routinely done today-sometimes with some variations or modifications. The issues you must consider are much the same whether you are having stomach stapling, a gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, Biliopancreatic Diversion, BPD with a Duodenal Switch, "ballon insertion," a combination of these or something else. Each has advantages and lethal dangers. Yes, you can die during or from the results of weight-loss surgery.

I lost and regained a hundred pounds after each of two surgeries. My diabetes is gone, but I am permanently physically disabled, and live with many extreme complications.

Despite some pros, I will explain some of the possible cons-possible outcomes that doctors may down play when advising you. Everyone dreams of having a better body, a healthy lifestyle, longer life; however, these things sometimes come at a great price...and simply aren't attainable for everyone. A lot of things can go wrong.

For some people, weight-loss surgery is the best (even the only) option for a better quality of life. But it's a gamble.

I want to help you make an informed choice. Please read this book before going under the knife. If you decide it's still your best option, good luck to you, and God bless you and speed you in your lifelong recovery.
