| Re: Obesity Surgery or Diet Pills? Diet pills do work but only for about 3 months. So you are going to have to use that time to modify your lifestyle, or you will start regaining your weight. Three months of diet pills are definitely a healthier option than living the rest of your life with the problems associated with bypass surgery. I'm not suggesting that some people don't need this surgery. On the contrary, I think a certain subset of obese people will simply never be able to lose weight without it. But if you can manage with the pills - go with it! |
