I want to gain 100 pounds so I can be eligible for a gastric bypass surgery. Any advice as to how I can do it?

Question

They say to be eligible, you have to be at least 100 pounds over weight. So, for health reasons I've decided to play their little game and go ahead and gain the weight so I can get it. But its going to take a while because I have the entire 100 pounds to go.

Answer 1

Please dont.
My friend was waiting to gain enough to do this, but he died due to sleep apnea
Just diet & exercise now, please

Answer 2

Hmmmm. That's quite the interesitng question you ask but is it really a question to be asking considering the person.

What most people in here are wondering is why do you want to gain 100 pounds for? What could possible be going through your mind to want to put your own body at risk like that just to get a gastric bypass, which is for people who are typically fat or overweight, who get it to help them stop eating so much and to lose weight.

By doing what you ask I think you are making a mockery of the people who really do need it because they have a weight/eating problem and apparently you don't. Common snese would dictate that if you really want to loose weight at your age then just eat tiny portions of food and exercise. Go see a physician and get a second opinion for your condition, but hey, it's your money and your life and you'll do as you see fit with it but I wouldn't expect any sympathy from anyone should the worst happen to you.

I think you might have some self-esteem and low confidence issues because there's really no legit reason for you to what to get a gastric bypass and if there is I'm sure people are dying to know it since you didn't explain it when youasked this question.

Hope this helps in you in not making a mistake which could cost you everything a.k.a your life.

Answer 3

THat is a very dangerous surgery with many ill side effects. I was seriously considering it, cause I was 380. I decided to do it on my own, and saved myself over $30,000

I lost 105 pounds in 6 months. Here is how I did it.
1. Every morning get up and walk for 45 minutes. You can start with less time, but you want to get up to 45 minutes, and it must be fast walk. You want your heart rate to go up. It must be in the morning, it kick starts your metabolism.
2. I cut out Red Meat, and fatty foods. Boneless skinnless chicken breast, baked, or grilled, rice and vegetables (steamed).
3. Eat half. Just eat half of what you normally eat. Put 1/2 on your plate, and put the rest away. Cook less. When you go to fast food, get salads only. Or grilled chicken. No fries, only diet soda. Or water.

It will work, once you get into a routine, you will get hooked on the results, and you will keep the routine. It has been over a year for me.

Stay motivated, and get up and walk every day. I seriously lost all my weight starting off my day on my walk.

Good LUCK!

Answer 4

Are you mad? I have had gastric bypass surgery and I would only reccommend it if it was a life or death situation such as mine was. Have the band if you want to lose weight if you have tried everything else first. The risk and complications are not worth it .

Answer 5

don't be sily man... thats a stupid game to play with ur health and health service.

Being a hundred pounds overwight is going to render you succeptible to all sorts of heart and kidney problems. Not to mention the excessive skin (when u loose weight again) and the all too real probability that u might die on the operating table or from complications later on.


Besides... i'm sure you already knew that...

plus... you've probably seen or at least heard of "Supersize me"... u know how easy it is to put those kilos on...
which begs the question of whether this post is actually genuine...

.... don't be an egg-head man...

Answer 6

I agree with Frank. You need more psychological help than help to gain 100 Pd's. why would anyone want to do that to themselves or their family and friends. Stop being a self centred *** and get on the real life wagon like join a gym, meet people and get happy about it.

Answer 7

What is the point in seeking surgery? If you crave attention, hospitals are places that are busy and have ill little time to attend on wasted surgery for naught. You need to talk to a psychiatrist, not a surgeon. If I were your surgeon, you would be wiping your forehead instead of your butt. I have seen too many people that virtually force themselves on surgeons and relish their agonies. Not for me! When I scrub in, it is all business, not to give someone kicks and glory. By the Hippocratic Oath we vow to do no harm...and you are asking someone to do that. The surgeon would be guilty of malfeasance and malpractice if he didn't place you on a diet prior to surgery. We are not stupid.

Answer 8

Gastric bypass surgery is not without hazards. A friend of mine who had it a year ago recently died from complications. Why don't you pick something else and give your family a break.

Answer 9

i think you're pretty stupid if you want to damage your health so much etc.

but for some good ideas, watch the Simpson's episode season 7 episode 7 King size Homer.

Answer 10

Then you'll fail the psychological evaluation before they even consider the surgery. And you'll be fatter than ever.

Answer 11

You also have to pass a psychiatric evaluation to get that surgery, and I don't think you'll pass.
