Use two magnets. :smug:
[QUOTE=BaconDioxide;17795185]That's completely absurd.
Not the reluctance to have surgery, the idea that having a gastric band is "cheating".[/QUOTE]They believe in earning weight loss. Rather than just taking the easy way out. They believe a good life has to be EARNED.
Some fat people are all talk
"I will get slim this year"
"I'll beat your ass"
It is the parents that tell the kid it is cheating. The kids just have such a low self confidence that they listen to whatever their parents tell them.
No surgery like this is a good idea except in extreme cases, when you can make a (relatively speaking) easy lifestyle change it is almost always the best option to do that, not have surgery.
Besides, even with gastric bands it's not guaranteed, you can still cheat and binge on food that can slip round the band.
There's no magic weight reduction surgery either, liposuction is [i]cosmetic only[/i], it is only possible to suck out the relatively small amount of subcutaneous fat just beneath the skin, not the 'visceral fat' that lies actually inside the body. It's this deep fat that is the problem, scientific studies have found that the fat removed during lipo is actually beneficial to the body so removing it is a bad thing to do.
Obese people can't use liposuction to lose their fat, since it is all stored deep within the body, liposuction will do nothing, hence no mention of it as the cure-all fat reduction surgery.
Bleh, anyway, gastric bands are not a good idea...

pass physical science before you speak
They complain they don't have any support, but I think they have plenty of motivation. 42% get bullied for it, 58% think it won't get them a boyfriend or girlfriend because of it, and 60% believe it will stop them from getting their dream job. HOW CAN THIS NOT BE MOTIVATING THEM.
[QUOTE=Master117;17795235]Weight loss surgery is very unsafe. Besides sucking out all the fat, it destroys other tissues and blood vessels, making the risk for post-operation complications very high.[/QUOTE]
Do you even know what a gastric band is? It's a band wrapped around the stomach to make you feel full much faster so you don't eat as much but don't have to feel hungry like diets make you feel. Not sure if it's safe, I just didn't think you understood the article.

Oh Oh Oh!
Wow Man! I'm so offended by childish humour that I heard when I was like 5.
At least think of something original.
They shouldn't get surgery, they just need to stop being fat.

And I'm under the impression that they can be undone when the child reaches the target weight? Or will they stay like that permanently?

People are lazy in the 21st century. Get with the times.
The only thing I hate more are whales that act like they're perfectly normal in shape and form, yet go BATSHIT whenever anyone mentions their weight and thus destroys their dream world and snaps them back to reality.
Why cheat at a game you cant lose.
Thats the american way :patriot:
Fat people should just stop being fat.
I can see where they're coming from with the cheating thing. They want to get fit and lose the weight by their own effort to beat the fat - having it just taken out by surgery, to them, probably seems like not fighting their own battle. Like a hollow victory.

How can I think of something original? You've probably heard every insult by now

Or maybe they don't give a shit if they're fat.
Skinny people seem to care more about fat people than fat people do.
If they say it is 'cheating', then I say they already lost because they are fat. They shouldn't say that, while still not taking measures against it like exercise, better diets etc.
Stupid hippocrites :buddy:
Aren't kids usually terrified of surgery anyway? You're getting [b][i]cut open[/i][/b] for god's sake.
Um.... this is news?
Anyway... stop eating fat foods and go exercise. Problem solved.

No, that's called social Darwinism, and Darwin himself had nothing to do with it.
