Question
I'd been on a diet and I lost fifteen pounds in two to three weeks, this may sound unhealthy, and I want to try something else. Lately I've been binging and eating so much when I'm not even hungry because I'm bored, and money's tight so I can't really do anything all that fun to relieve my boredom. I was thinking of sanitized tapeworms, not only are they sanitized, but they can help you lose weight that is shortening your life span, since it's sanitized and there's perfectly healthy medication to rid yourself of tapeworms instead of harmful diet pills, I think it's worth a try. Can I get your opinion? Make sure you consider this first, just because it's not conventional or eccentric doesn't mean it's automatically bad, so think about it first please.

Answer
Karen, does it sound extreme to you? Stick a tape worm in your body so that you can continue to eat junk that is making your body unhealthy? Cleansed or not cleansed, I don't see it as a good idea. No more than I see gastric bypass as a solution when the person continues to maintain their unhealthy habits after surgery.

Eating really isn't "fun" and certainly doesn't decrease boredom, in the long run it just makes more of it.And, as for money, you are spending money on junk foods, that money could rent a movie, pay for a game of bowling, a book etc.

Excuses. That is the thing you need to focus on breaking!

You need to live healthfully because it is human, because it is what our body calls for, not for fun not for money, and losing weight doesn't take an extreme like sticking a worn in your body..

I did think about it, my opinion isn't haste.

I also don't think harmful diet pills are what are needed. You said money is tight so why buy them? just buy fruit, veggies, beans,...life lean and live well!
