Well - I thought a few times before posting this one... I'm not overtly or otherwise a religious type person. By any stretch of the imagination... In fact - I believe organized religion is often times to the detriment of society, rather than to society's betterment ==> Different topic for a different day and likely a different forum LOL
I am a spiritual person though, in a very real sense I suppose...
I know that there are some Members here who will appreciate the message of this video (as did I...) So I share it with you all. Hopefully you take some positive message from it and appreciate the knowledge espoused: That through WLS we can attain a certain freedom, a release from the bonds of
obesity, so that we may again learn to embrace life and all the good things it has to offer.
That's my non-sermon for the day
Jacquii.

Obesity

 |
Obesity results from the excessive accumulation of fat that exceeds the body's skeletal and physical standards. Obesity has been defined as a weight more than 20% above what is considered normal according to standard age, height, and weight tables, or by a complex formula known as the body mass index. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), an increase in 20 percent or more above your ideal body weight is the point at which excess weight becomes a health risk.
