Sandy Szwarc's latest anti-WLS article

The latest article in Sandy Szwarc's excellent series criticizing weight loss surgery:
http://junkfoodscience.blogspot.com/2007/02/note-from-dani.html

includes this URL:
http://www.onthewhole.info/2007/02/an_article_on_b.html

which has this excellent quote:
"Wouldn't it be amazing if bariatric medicine actually focused on making or keeping fat people healthy rather than trying to make fat people thin?"

I love Sandy. I'm so happy to have her voice out there, critiquing the spin that's put on studies about food and weight and health, pointing out the dangers of WLS, and debunking junk science.
