| Article Title :: Gastric Bypass Surgery - How Fast Will I Lose The Weight? |
| |
| The gastric bypass procedure isn’t for everyone, but those who’ve had it – an you will of heard of the success stories tooted by the marketing wizards and infomercials, the gastric bypass achieves maximum results and starts ‘working’ right away after surgery. Well it would, since patients are unable to eat more then a few spoon fulls of food per serving!For those that endure this mental torture (I’m kidding, I just can’t imagine eating so little with my personal love of food!) weight is lost extremely rapidly. Right after surgery most patients generally lose around 9lbs per month for the first two months, then steady weight loss from then on as long as patients stick (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Gastric Bypass Surgery - A Mortality Rate to Be Scared Of? |
| |
| Success stories on the gastric bypass are everywhere, but how about the fatalities from the procedure? Barely mentioned in the magazines and newspapers, there is a serious risk carried by the gastric bypass and that risk is a 1 in 50 chance of you dieing within 1 month of the surgery – that certainly puts the frights up me. The study by Washington University is shocking to say the least. The figure is apparently four times as many fatalities when patients are in the hands of inexperienced surgeons.As the money the private surgeries make on the procedure is rising – over 150,000 gastric bypasses we’re performed in 2004, the claims for compensation from distraught family member (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How to Prevent Child Obesity |
| |
| In America today, it is estimated that over 65% of the population is overweight with around 30% being at least clinically obese. Even more alarming is the estimation that 15% to 20% of the country’s children are overweight with nearly one third being at least clinically obese.
Now more than ever, something needs to be done to reverse this growing trend and prevent it from becoming an even bigger epidemic than it already is. By sitting back and allowing our children to become overweight and eventually obese, we are in effect severely shorting their lives.
The main ingredient in helping to eliminate child obesity is recognition. As parents, we can not take the sta (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Are Meal Replacements A Good Idea For Weight Loss? |
| |
| Think about the number one reasons why people are overweight nowadays. Overweight people fall into one of two different categories.
Either they have an unhealthy lifestyle – working long hours, eating out all the time, not getting enough exercise – or they simply eat too much, often in a compulsive way.
This type of eating – eating when one isn’t hungry, for example, or eating for emotional reasons rather than physical hunger – is really a type of addiction. It should be understood as an addiction, and it often is.
For example, the group Overeaters Anonymous functions on many of the same principles as AA or other twelve step programs. Exces (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Emotional Eating: 5 Tips for a Lifelong Challenge |
| |
| Here’s a note from my inbox:Hi Carol,Thank you so much for this week's newsletter. I have often said that food (simple carbs and sugar) are as addictive as drugs and alcohol. Although, I try not to limit myself to a low-carb lifestyle (I now know that restricting any food only backfires), I do know that eating just one cookie is extremely difficult for me.I know that eating a bagel, even a low-carb bagel, is going to leave me feeling like I want more to eat even though I may not be hungry. I often feel like the alcoholic who cannot have just one drink. I am still trying to balance not restricting any foods with the reality of the reaction that I know my body will ha (read full article) |
