As a health club manager for many years and a management member of the country’s largest HMO I could relate stories about people I worked with following corrective surgeries for weight-related problems that “dodged a bullet” and how sincere they were – afterward - about changing their eating and activity habits. Do you want to get “sobered up” by an event like that?
