10 Reasons to Consider Having Weight Loss Surgery
Losing
weight isn’t easy, no matter your starting weight. Traditional diets fail most
of the time. Statistics show that at least 95 percent of dieters
will regain all of their weight loss plus about 10 pounds after five years.
Why?
In many
cases, a person’s obesity is due to heredity and metabolism. No matter how
strong a person’s commitment to weight loss, not everybody can be as thin as
they want to be.
Dieting
for weight loss does not ensure permanent weight control. In fact, when the
body is continuously deprived adequate calories and nutrients, metabolism will
slow down in an attempt for the body to conserve energy. As soon as the diet
restrictions are reduced or removed, rapid weight gain is the likely result.
Has weight
loss been a lifelong battle for you? Have you tried every fad diet with little
