clinical study

anyone see this? http://www.empowerstudy.com/index.html it was in one of the little banners that runs across the top of the page here. sounds interesting. wish i qualified!

No you don't wish you qualified!  Your bmi would have to be 35 or better. I would have when I first looked into WLS. Now, I am at ~30 bmi, merely overweight (well almost) I feel science is on the brink of some very cool things, far less invasive, for fat people. This is one reason for you peeps who are well under age 40 to go it on your own, learn about your preferences and limits on healthy intake & exercise.   Just do or keep doing what you will need to do *anyway*, and have patience.

That's interesting.  I don't think that would work for me, though, because I eat whether I'm hungry or not.  My eating is all emotional.
