Healthy weight loss

So many times I meet people who are overweight and are thinking about a weight loss surgery.  I do not discount a weight loss surgery for medical necessity, but I do very strongly frown on this extreme form of weight loss for an individual without a medical condition.  I find it so disheartening when someone has gained weight through poor education, poor diet and minimal physical activity.  I wonder with the rate people are requesting this option if it is foreshadowing of the exponential vogue status of this choice in a generation or two.  Weight loss, just like weight gain can happen, and does happen with commitment, discipline, persistence and good choices.  Check out the attached article from Health Day about Gastric By-pass surgery and consider a more gradual and natural approach to weight loss.  Herbalife can provide the healthy and safer weight loss approach.
