    ( Don't believe the hype the complications and risk of dead are real. There is a whole industry promoting the intervention with false promises and made out studies. If you can't eat diabetes will go into remission but it will last until you return to eating as before again!)

    JAMA Surgery. Published online August 5, 2015. doi:10.1001/jamasurg.2015.2202. Available pre-embargo to the media at http://media.jamanetwork.com.)

    While undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy induced weight loss and improvements in obesity-related disorders, long-term followup shows significant weight regain and a decrease in remission rates of diabetes and, to a lesser extent, other obesity-related disorders over time, according to a study published online by JAMA Surgery.

    Obesity was recognized as a global epidemic by the World Health Organization 15 years ago and rates of obesity have since been increasing. Obesity is currently considered a severe health hazard and a risk factor for diabetes mellitus, hypertension, abnormal lipid levels, heart failure, and other related disorders. Bariatric procedures are reportedly the most effective strategy to induce weight loss compared with nonsurgical interventions. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a common and efficient bariatric procedure with increasing popularity in the Western world during the last few years, but data on its long-term effect on obesity-related disorders are scarce, according to background information in the article.

    Andrei Keidar, M.D., of Beilinson Hospital, Petah Tikva, Israel, and colleagues collected data on all patients undergoing LSGs performed by the same team at a university hospital between April 2006 and February 2013, including demographic details, weight followup, blood test results, and information on medications and comorbidities.

    A total of 443 LSGs were performed. Complete data were available for 54 percent of patients at the 1-year follow-up, for 49 percent of patients at the 3-year follow-up, and for 70 percent of patients at the 5-year follow-up. The percentage of excess weight loss was 77 percent, 70 percent, and 56 percent, at years 1, 3 and 5, respectively; complete remission of diabetes was maintained in 51 percent, 38 percent, and 20 percent, respectively, and remission of hypertension was maintained in 46 percent, 48 percent, and 46 percent, respectively.

    The decrease of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level was significant only at years 1 and 3. The changes in total cholesterol level (preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 5 years) did not reach statistical significance.

    "The longer follow-up data revealed weight regain and a decrease in remission rates for type 2 diabetes mellitus and other obesity-related comorbidities. These data should be taken into consideration in the decision-making process for the most appropriate operation for a given obese patient," the authors write.

    Like everything in this life there are no quick fixes or easy ways to be successful. Anything worth having and keeping has to be worked for. Even people who are very rich become ill, and no amount of money can buy back your health in many cases as we have seen. One thing is for sure as we all know, the right food is paramount if you want to control diabetes, insulin and type two drugs will never be a get out of jail free card.

    To even consider butchering  people in this way brings tears to my eyes.  Surgery has it's place in medicine of course, I have had 2 ops myself and will be eternally grateful to the surgeons and everyone else involved, but this bariatric surgery fad is madness.  Not cheap madness either.
