Gastric surgery is risky. I know someone who almost died and their sibling did die, from it in years past. I don't know maybe it has improved. But can't people also still stretch their stomach size out again? Is bypass different from sleeve and in which ways? Some people begin drinking (alcohol) afterward. For some reason there is an increase in drinking after the surgery. Is it hunger pangs? Isn't alcohol high calorie? The surgery is touted as a wonder cure and it works well for some but others not as much. And it carries risks. So does taking medicine a person doesn't need, I'd think. The body adjusts to caloric intake. But do people get enough nutrition with a decreased stomach size? I don't know the particulars. The person I mentioned above isn't one I'd really converse with at length. They told the story (no one asked) to a table of people at a festive occasion. In detail. (Someone who habitually speaks throughout a meal, and snaps if anyone else speaks.) So is the weight loss after gastric surgery basically because they can only eat a half cup (or whatever it is) of food at a time? But some people after surgery look deflated. Maybe the ones who aren't able to exercise too?

Yes you're right. People can later have bad medical conditions from cutting off their stomach. They can also stretch their smaller surgery stomach back to its original size from eating or drinking too much, and alcohol can damage the surgery for awhile. 5 ounces of wine is about 120 calories, which is a lot since its a high glycemic food and is digested like sugar. I remember Enty talking about how both Adele and Mariah had this surgery, and they both drink so much wine that Mariah gained a lot of the weight back, and Adele has to workout like a maniac to burn her excess alcohol calories. Mariah is 5 ft 8in, so she can eat a little more, but if every meal is high 1000 calories, your 2000 is over in 2 meals, and she rarely exercises like she used to and is over 50 now so slower metabolism without exercise will gain fat.

Meghan Markle is in a parachute - not a tent - in the Variety photo. They could have at least coordinated the colors of her outfit with it, but they didn't.
