Daybreak news today (13/4) on WLS.

[TR_Wolf]

Just saw right now on Daybreak news, a quick summary saying how weight loss surgery is showing good results in reducing Type II diabetes, blood pressure etc, and went on to explain about how people can lose 60% of their excess body weight after a year after weight loss etc.

Nice to see them saying something positive about WLS.

I wonder if the main news will give more detail...

Great to hear WLS is being recognised for the very real health benefits it gives x

Yay - I saw it on the breakfast news, its the main headlines....about time something good comes from this...rather than all the negative press!


Have a good day everyone x







Love Kat x

Just been listening to it on Radio 5. Nicky Clarke did the, they should just eat less & move more line, that infuriates me so much, like its 'just' that easy!

They have been having a debate on my local radio station, but I turned it off as the comments from those that did not want the surgery available on nhs were irritating to say the least.

I saw this and thought 'At least it's something positive for a change!'

 

[mazbrad]

its positive publicity however the few who are agaianst the NHS funding will have plenty to say, i get told on regular basis if u dnt eat too much you wouldnt need bypass, so hold on to ya seat and see what they have to say

Same in Jeremy Vine Radio 2 just now, positive speaking from the people FOR surgery, but the negatives didn't listen and just rang in saying eat less and get off your butts.

There was am article in today's daily mail online that was about Wls and the positive results the Doctors are finding with Diabetes, blood pressure and cholesterol. Very unusual for the daily mail to publish anything positive about anyone overweight.
