”A slim body is starved out.” I don’t know if you agree with this statement, but the reality is that there are not a few people who use dieting to lose weight, and most people in this group have a big misconception about dieting, mistaking a hunger strike for a diet. Extreme starvation may make you feel uncomfortable, but the changes in your body don’t show up for a while, so many people ignore the dangers of dieting to lose weight. The two worst nightmares for people who lose weight: weight rebound and easy to gain weight. Both of these conditions can occur during a hunger strike to lose weight. The body lacks a source of nutrients, and in order to maintain the normal functioning of life, the body’s basal metabolic rate automatically decreases, which is also a bottleneck easily encountered in conventional dieting. After resuming a normal diet, the body will rebound with a vengeance due to the chronic lack of energy source, and the survival instinct allows the body to absorb more nutrients in a small amount of food. At this point you may find that despite having kept the amount of food under control, you are still prone to obesity, and this may be the result of an easily obese body. I have encountered similar patients whose weight went back and forth due to the wrong dieting methods, making it increasingly difficult to lose weight until the BMI was greater than 32, when conventional dieting methods were no longer appropriate. Fortunately, all the patients I have come across in this category have been able to successfully achieve weight loss through weight loss surgery. So far, we have helped more than a thousand people to complete their surgeries, and a large number of post-operative visits show that patients recognize Dr. Wu Liangping’s surgical techniques and weight loss surgery results.
