This is the key. As I've said from the beginning it's not a solution by any means. It's a means to an end and a kick starter towards a healthier lifestyle. The ONLY way you will get healthier is by putting healthy things in your body and exercise. If you do the surgery and then keep putting bullshit into that smaller stomach a couple of things are going to happen. First, you are going to continue to be unhealthy even though you may be losing weight. Secondly you will eventually stretch your stomach and stop losing weight and gain weight again w/o a lifestyle change. If you have a hard time committing to a juice diet fully then I don't know how you are going to commit to something so extreme and evasive. Both of these are means to an end and both are to be a jump start to a healthier lifestyle but if you don't change yourself then you won't be any healthier even if you do lose some weight. That's what a juice diet does. It gets you headed in the right direction weight-wise but it also gives you the ability to shed unhealthy cravings, habits & lifestyle. Like I said, one of these is MUCH less evasive and you can start right now. Either way, if you don't enact a lifestyle change it oesn't matter which one you chose because it will be the same as choosing nothing in the end.
