What If It Were Cancer? Why Post-Bariatric Health Demands Urgency and Action
May 12, 2025
Facing the Brutal Truth About Obesity and Urgency
You are statistically more likely to die from an obesity-related disease than from cancer. That’s not scare tactics—it’s a medical fact. Yet, when you’re facing daily decisions about food, time, and energy, convenience still wins.
But let’s flip the script:
If you were diagnosed with cancer tomorrow, would you still say “I don’t have time to cook?”
Of course not. You’d delete DoorDash, cancel the takeout, and start cooking like your life depended on it—because it would. You’d say, “Tell me what to do so I don’t die.”
So… why don’t we do that now?
Why Convenience Can’t Come First After Bariatric Surgery
Many bariatric patients feel overwhelmed by the demands of recovery. Common refrains like “It’s hard,” “It’s expensive,” or “I just don’t have time” are real—but they’re also holding you back.
Post-surgery success doesn’t come from convenience—it comes from commitment. It’s about making the same kind of urgent, life-saving decisions you would if your life were hanging in the balance… because it is.
