Do you think that the WLS experience should be targeted and optimized for the obese in their 20s or 30s? Clinically, this age group may have fewer complications than those in their 50s, 60s and older. If WLS ever became socially acceptable and mainstream like getting glasses, do you think a person's age should have an impact on targeted WLS advocacy? In other words, should the health industry or government advocate addressing the obesity disease with WLS at an earlier age rather than an older age? Secondarily to the well being of an individual, it would save trillions in healthcare costs over time. In the future, I can see that either the obesity gene will be eliminated or government will mandate WLS to get healthcare costs under control.

And yes I do think obesity should be targeted at an earlier age. I look around me every day and so many people are overweight.
