Interestingly, I've never thought about using DBT or mindfulness for obesity. I've been practicing since 1999 and it never crossed my mind. I've always used them for anxiety, anger, being in the moment, etc.

This is a video that really got me inspired
I'm not sure I'd consider it short cutting, but some things I used to work tirelessly on, quit being an issue for me. Hunger and some hormones normalized after surgery, and normal behaviour naturally followed.I've been putting a lot of work into consciousness development and basically trying to re wire my brain through meditation and putting a lot of work in. Does anyone have any thoughts on whether they think the ds is short cutting that work? I am an emotional over eater, although I believe that some part of it is biological. This is something I'm really serious about, developing my mindfulness. What are your thoughts?
Only those who have had the lap band will know the answer to that.is it worse than lap band recovery?
Thanks to everyone who responded. I've decided the magic is in the practice and I think the surgery will help me have the energy to practice more. meditation , mindfulness , and gratitude . I could lose myself in theory but I've decided to just do something. is it worse than lap band recovery?
Obesity is a disease, not a character flaw. I suspect practicing mindfulness, meditation, etc is probably good for almost everyone. But it probably won't cure cancer. Or most other diseases. You don't need to be punished. You have been punished enough. It is time to treat the disease.
