But; when you read this, didn't I see something about bone density? Why is this idea of a pill to stop a hormone, and an operation that stops one from eating, better than trying Atkins, or sugarbusters or low carbers, or protein power?

When ever I read about nutritionsts or Dr. evaluating diets, they condemmed Atkins, said Sugarbusters was vague and no good; but yet approved Slim fast drinks and Weight watchers point system.

Reading all this about stomack bypasses and clips etc.makes you think okay! they lost the weight, now how does the body go about getting enough nurishment to continue to replace bones, muscle cells, heart cells etc. Or does it take very little food to keep people at a proper weight. Also what about a persons genes that makes them a little heavier in the boobs or the behind or the thighs?
perhaps the answer to hunger in the third world is clips? no need for food?no more hunger? the next thing will be a cookie as in Soilent Green?
remember that movie with Charlton Heston? {scary and is why I remember it}
