Gastric surgery is drastic and it means taking supplements for life. It can have very unpleasant, long lasting consequences and complications. It is not an easy quick fix and some people still regain weight because they eat the wrong things and drink too much alcohol. Even a tiny stomach can still stretch. If you accept that your diet will be very limited every day for life after surgery you might be able to decide to limit your calorie intake without surgery.
Every operation is dangerous when you are obese.

I know it is very hard to lose weight and keep it off, it is intimidating, miserable at times, demoralising - but if you do succeed it can give a huge boost to confidence, drastically improve your health and physical fitness and give a whole new lease of life.

Plan now, start in January.

Martin, I lost my cravings for sugar and sweet stuff long ago. If I accidentally drink coffee with sugar in it all I can taste is syrup water.
I don't sweeten my porridge and enjoy it - I used to heap the sugar on to all my breakfast cereals.

Sometimes I could kill for a pork pie but I know it's not worth the indigestion or the calories.
