Or maybe they should move to a weight-maintenance program after the weight-loss program?
Why is surgery your conclusion when it's not surprising that people revert to their old weight after reverting to their old diets.
I read the abstracts and the studies only have weight-loss programs. Even the weight watchers article (which by the way is not a study) says: "Lifetime Members are only "the most successful” Weight Watchers members who achieve their “goal weight” (usually a BMI of 25) and maintain it for 6 weeks."
