			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The rapid increase in obesity across the country has resulted in a number of serious health problems. Many of these health problems can deteriorate a person&#8217;s quality of life and even shorten a person&#8217;s life. One such health condition that is made worse when obese is asthma. Studies are now showing that there is a link between asthma and morbid obesity. For people who are suffering from severe obesity, lap band surgery has been shown to be an effective method of weight loss that reduces instances of severe asthma attacks.</p>
<p>Obesity has been proven to be a risk factor for such diseases as heart disease, some types of cancer, and diabetes. Now, research studies are revealing that obesity is a risk factor for asthma. For instance, studies now show the risk for developing asthma increases when there is a large increase in weight. When a person is seriously overweight, their breathing becomes shallow because their lungs do not expand as much as it would if one were a normal healthy weight. As well, in obese individuals, there is a chronic inflammation of the lungs which reduces the airway passage. The inflammation takes place in the fatty tissue. A narrower airway passage also means the airways will remain blocked when breathing normally which reduces oxygen exchange. The airways will contract more causing more asthma symptoms. Narrow airways in obese asthmatics are more likely to stay closed during normal breathing which results in reduced oxygen exchange which puts one in a higher risk category for pulmonary hypertension. As well, obese people are more prone to sleep apnea and gastroesophageal reflux disease which can make asthma worse.</p>
<p>When a person suffers from obesity, they tend to have more severe asthma problems than those who are not obese. With a <a href="http://www.ciboclinic.com/">weight loss surgery</a> such as <a href="http://www.ciboclinic.com/">lap band surgery</a>, there can be considerable improvement for people suffering from asthma. With the loss of the excess fat, lung function will improve, inflammation will subside, the air passages will open up, and people will breathe better. As well, they will need less medication and there will be fewer trips to the hospital due to a severe asthma attack.</p>
<p>Lap band surgery has become a popular <a href="http://quickweightlosscourse.com" target=_self>weight loss</a> procedure to treat obesity because it is minimally invasive with few side effects. As well as having proven positive health results, the procedure normally takes less than an hour and the patient recovery time is short with most patients going home just a few hours after the procedure. It is also the only reversible option and post operative lap band adjustments are made without additional surgery.</p>
<p>During home recovery, the patient will have simple diet to follow as they learn how to eat healthy and the correct amounts of food. Lap band surgery is a great option for those suffering from obesity and serious health problems such as asthma. When considering any type of surgery, it is important to consult with a physician to learn about the benefits and risks involved with the procedure.</p>
<p>The CIBO clinic&#8217;s adjustable gastric band offers the safest, sustainable results in weight loss by reducing the amount of food your stomach can hold. Despite the <a href="http://www.ciboclinic.com/financing.asp">lab band cost</a>, there are many advantages. You can lose weight without hunger and feel full longer with support before and after your laparoscopic surgery. Read more about the experience in <a href="http://www.ciboclinic.com/blog">Lapband blog</a>.</p>

<p>The Shakes-Popcorn-and-Ice-Cream-Diet, is a revolutionary new diet book that helps lose weight dramatically. A step by step guide to losing, 20, 50, 100 or more lbs in a very short time compared to other diets. Satisfying for the most difficult and obese problem dieters. Originally conceived from the bariatric Doctors at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. Here&#8217;s a diet that charges no membership fees or requires no meal ordering from a program, just follow the book and lose weight!<br />
http://www.Shakes-Popcorn-and-Ice-Cream-Diet.com<br />
I&#8217;ve dieted for more than 45 years.  I&#8217;ve lost weight on Atkins and Weight Watchers and always gained back more. I gave up on dieting and trying to lose weight and believed it was something totally unattainable for me.<br />
I ended up in a wheel chair and needing oxygen, not a happy place to be, and realized if I didn&#8217;t do something I was going to die. Dramatic, yes, I would say so. First, I went to my &#8220;primary&#8221; Doctor who thought I should have the gastric bypass operation and sent me to the bariatric surgeon in Miami as the only hope of saving myself. The surgeon scheduled me as well as about 200 other previous patients and potential patients to attend a two hour support group meeting, in a small auditorium.  They discussed how this procedure saved their lives and attested that it was the best gift they gave to themselves, since not all insurance companies cover the procedure and you have to dig deep into your pocket to pay for it.  I set up the private consultation with the Doctor and I was ready to have my stomach cut out, stapled, bypassed or anything else I could do in order to become a new person. The meeting with the Doctor went well.  He explained all the possibilities and told of all the possible mishaps and complications that could happen such as dying or becoming a vegetable but the odds of that happening were only 2 in every 100 patients, with complications hovering around 10%.  Not encouraging but I had to have it &#8211; live or die!<br />
An appointment was made and a week later I was in the waiting room of my cardiologist!  In I go to the office after waiting an hour and fifteen minutes and we exchange all of our pleasantries about how I am and what&#8217;s been going on. I told him I was there because I needed his clearance for stomach bypass surgery before they operate.  &#8220;Sorry I can&#8217;t do that&#8221; and I said &#8220;why not?&#8221;  He answered &#8220;Because if you have the surgery, you won&#8217;t get up off the operating table alive&#8230;  Your heart can&#8217;t take it.&#8221; &#8220;You&#8217;re kidding&#8221; I said.  &#8220;No I&#8217;m not!&#8221; he said. &#8220;Then what the  am I going to do?, I asked. If I stay like this I&#8217;m going to die anyway!&#8221; I was really depressed and desperate.  I thought my life was over. I just couldn&#8217;t imagine not having the surgery; it just never entered my mind!<br />
&#8220;Pretend you had it!&#8221; he said. &#8220;Do everything you would do as if you had it.  The surgery doesn&#8217;t cut out your weight; it only makes your stomach smaller.  Your brain is still the same brain that wants to eat. So you can eat whatever those who have had the surgery eat.  True they had the surgery, and it might be a little harder for you, but just pretend, you had it!&#8221;<br />
I left in a total state of disappointment and dejection, and just didn&#8217;t know what to do. Certainly I couldn&#8217;t just pretend.   I haven&#8217;t been able to cut my eating down before, by eating salads and watching every morsel I ate.  This was stuff I just didn&#8217;t eat and don&#8217;t want to eat and I couldn&#8217;t just eat a little of this and a little of that. So, I stayed depressed and continued eating for about two more months, just feeling hopeless.  Then my brother, to whom I was telling all my woes, tells me he&#8217;s having the gastric bypass surgery in California at UCLA.  for more information about our book Visit http://www.lulu.com/content/3383366 and buy a copy of my book to get your sexy body back!</p>
