If I could change anything, it would be that I would have had more information about eating right BEFORE I had gastric bypass surgery. Although I've done well, there are still issues that I'd not be dealing with if I'd had the shift in thinking and an understanding of why i was so fat in the first place. The processed foods that are so enticing are a major factor in our nations obesity. If you want a clearer understanding before making the leap to surgery, please, please, PLEASE watch as many of these documentaries as you can to obtain some great information that you might make a well-informed decision. DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!! Surgery isn't the only way out!!
The titles are:
Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead;
Food, Inc.;
King Korn;
Farmageddon;
Forks Over Knives
Fresh, the Movie
FoodMatters
Beautiful Truth
Killer at Large
Many of these can be found on Netflix or Blockbuster Online.
Again - at the time, bypass surgery was the best choice for me, there's more information out there now, though. Please take the time to at least look. God Bless you!
