Sorry, I’m not really sure how expensive that is. I suggest you talk to your doctor or health care professional.

It’s right what you’re saying.
A lot of eating disorders, including obesity are all pyschological. They are habits ingrained into your lives which stop you really enjoying food. There has to be a mental change before the physical one can begin.

it’s not just working out.
she says the diets don’t work, but it’s not the diet that’s the problem.. it’s her relationship with food.
it’s so frustrating hearing people say that they ‘don’t work’.. yeah, they only work if you STICK TO THEM. go figure.
it breaks my heart seeing young people go through surgery, sometimes irreversable, when what they need is emotional and physcological therapy for their dependance on food.

Obviously exercise is the only true way to lose weight, and that diets are only support structures FOR exercise as well as a healthy lifestyle…
But that’s not the American instant gratification way.

One can also be addicted to the abhoring of food, or Anorexia and Bulimia. There has to be a middle ground, but sometimes that gets lost in everyday life.

Food becomes an addiction. It sounds rediculous but it’s true, when you’re over weight. Food, is like heroin, you get a high when you’re stuffing your face and you can’t stop. I think gastric by-pass is a great way to solve the addiction, because it is like a drug, but you can’t get away from it… you can’t just say “I’m not gonna use this anymore” when you’re addicted to food. It’s sad but true.

I had gained an incredible 100 lbs. I cut out fast food except occasionally,cooked at home,baked more foods,cut out soft drinks except diet,drank coffee without sugar,reduced sweets,except for sugar free things,occasionally a bite of a candy bar, etc. and I’ve lost very slowly from the end of June 2008-Feb.2009 51 lbs. I also try to walk 1 mile a day at least three times a week.(BP,Chloresterol, and triglycerides are all down.) Painless weight loss. Slow is the key to success. Just my thoughts.

A gastric bypass is not “the easy way”. There are some mechanisms in the body, which makes it impossible for the extremely obese to loose all the overweight the “normal” way. Many of them will have to live on VERY little food, in order not to regain the weight. So little, that high doses of additional vitamins, minerals and such are nessecary just to keep them healthy. There is no “easy way” out of these problems once they are established.

admmwl,
Most sports do not recommend eating before a game. Some will load up on energy drinks, bars or a light meal. But you are right especially after. For the most part, it is our body’s response after burning all the fuel that the body starts to crave.

Fit Over 40
Notice that many obese people try to figure surgery is the only option?
Many fail to realize that it is more of a psych issue. Seek support, seek counseling, seek your coping mechanisms, find your strength. If you don’t have that mentation and the will to lose the weight, then all diet program will fail.
I have to remind myself that “not all people are strong.”

I’v had problems with weight when i was in highschool, I picked up a sport (tennis) and didnt go on a diet, I changed my diet.
My old weight training teacher used to say if you burn more than you take in, your gonna loose weight. That may be a bit simple, but its a good start.
