Is there a thread on this site for folks that are serious about losing weight?
Mmmmmmm! LOVE salmon! AND lard roll!
So, gnat. Have you gone on this "heatlhy eating" kick before in the past? How'd that work for ya? Why are you thinking a surgery you haven't even HAD yet is going to make you able to eat healthy for the rest of your life? WHY are you all holier than thou? I'll tell you why. Because you're a doe-eyed newbie, that doesn't have a clue, that's why. Perhaps DSers just chose a surgery that would be forgiving of us indulging in rich foods because we already figured out a long time ago that surgery won't fix the fact that we LIKE rich food, aren't going to stick with eating "diet food" for very long, and need something that allows us to eat food we enjoy eating and can stick with eating LONG TERM. That might explain WHY the DS has superior LONG TERM results, ya think?

Ya know he was an actor right?
and ya know he died of cancer probably from eating bacon donuts right?
He died of lung cancer, idiot. I doubt that was caused by eating bacon.
Anyhow, since we don't ABSORB the fat in the food we eat, it doesn't cause us health problems. What part of that can you NOT comprehend? My cholesterol went from oMFG to perfect after my DS. -- Stick that in your celery stalk and eat it. Oh, and....Have fun!
