Is gastric bypass surgery the easy way out?

Well, it isn't the easy way out and I did have it. The long term results in are not great. There are long term malabsorption problems that will not go away. I am now anemic, low protein, low calcium and have osteopenia. This is not the easy way out. I think it should only be done for health reasons and even then I wonder if it should be done at all. I had it for health reasons and my diabetes was essentially gone immediately. Now the diabetes is still good but so many other problems from not getting the nutrients I need. And the weight...well you still have to watch what you eat and diet.
