| 8) What about my Quality of life? |
A. person's quality of life is significantly improved after weight loss. Aside from the medical consequences of obesity, the social consequences are obvious to anyone who is obese. Difficulty in sitting in seats in airplanes, movie theaters and buses is embarassing. Difficulties with simple acts such as tying shoes, and difficulties with basic personal hygiene, are also common. The most serious is the social stigmatization and prejudice against obesity that is ubiquitous throughout almost every society in the world. These consequences of obesity result in difficulties in personal relationships and at work.
In one well-done study it was demonstrated that the quality of life of patients who are severely obese is equal to a person undergoing chemotherapy for cancer! Further, after weight loss those patients' quality of life improved to the level of the general population. Quality of life just three months after weight loss surgery returns to normal! |
