Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. If it goes wrong, doesn't work or doesn't dissolve after the 4 months. What if it doesn't last the 4 months?
There are a lot of what if's for me.
Its far less intrusive than gastric band or gastric bypass, and its not forever. I think its a good alternative. I might look into it further.
I think I might look into that one!
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
Sounds great on paper. It's like a 4 month diet. Question is what happens after the 4 month and people go back to their normal calorie intake? In many obesity cases it's life style. I don't think weight gain due to medical issues will solve this problem. But maybe I am wrong and it does help long term.
I think if I was able to see some weight come off, I might be encouraged to keep going. If I weighed less I might ache less and be more active. Right now, my weight seems like an uphill battle. And all the meds changes haven't helped either.
Good point. If it works it's great. But i am really sceptical.
Does it come with support? The balloon helps you to eat less, cause you are full earlier. What happens when the balloon dissolves? People eat more again and will struggle to keep the list weight down, cause they will be hungry again. If you start being more active while the balloon is in place and keep going then it might work, but just relying on the balloon to keep the weight of, I am not sure.
My weight is generally stable as long as I am not doing a meds change.
So if I lost weight from having the balloon in, it would probably stay off for quite a while, but I might not lose any more once the balloon is out. I wonder what the thinking is behind 4 months exactly.

It does sound like a good way to start.

They look at me and think I'm cool, I'm purplefan at night I rule.
