overweight is about eating too many calories. don't eat so much .. a whole food vegan diet would literally melt the pounds off... very difficult to overeat on whole plants.. it's impossible surgery is no substitute for proper food selection and discipline :D

i'm on topic :D hey guys look yet another 777 alias http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=193916 9865+ posts :D yep, that's our 777 7400+ posts

ya like the gov should force a group of overweight people into risky surgery for their varicose veins and gallstones :p you are foolish beyond belief opinion777 :D

stupid enough to peg you! you've already had it done! looser LOL :D Are all those conditions you listed above "dangerous", ie life-threatening? Are there any others? Waiting for serious disease to manifest before requiring them to have the surgery is a bit late to the party isn't it...

Hell i got it now! he's ALREADY had the procedure paid for by health insurance convincing them HIS obesity is life threatening that's how he knows so much about it.. that means he had to have tried other non-invasive weightloss protocols but FAILED them all! what a LOOSER! priceless :D

He has an addictive personality and lacks control over his life so he wishes to abdicate that control to others.. that figures :D

Yes, that too but don't forget the naturally built in poison.. FAT! We must force them to remove it! :D

So, obesity is not the only requirement they must also have a "dangerous physical problem" CAUSED by the obesity? Such as what? :D

so your suggestion is that everyone over a BMI of 30 kg/m2 be forced to risk their life with mandatory surgery but exempt all under 30?

We need to make the fast food pushers more accountable for the 'death on a plate' they routinely serve up. The double cheeseburger is just as addicting as tobacco and we need laws protecting us from it :D
