Would you ever turn to Liposuction for a quick fix to your unwanted pounds? My answer is a resounding 'no', based mostly on the fact that I am too practical to spend thousands on something I can do for free. But does it seem like a miracle fix to you? Keep this in mind:
Liposuction may get rid of the fat, but it doesn't improve your health. The high blood pressure, high cholesterol and blocked arteries are still going to be there, and you'll still be at risk for all those diseases that obesity is a risk factor for: Cancer, heart disease, etc.
So while you might be over weight, at least without liposuction, your weight can be an indicator of your health. Your weight can also inspire you to make changes that are good for you health -- lipo seems merely to be the lazy way out. What do you think?
