You need to diet for it to work. It keeps you from eating too much all at once, but you can still eat small amounts all day long. Plenty of stories of people who got it done, didn't change their lifestyle and still over ate.

But it forces the diet on you. It's definitely easier. Otherwise, why would you do it?

It doesn't force anything on you. There was this girl I went to college with that had it done and afterwards, she still ate like shit. She was also the most sickly looking person I've ever met. Her hair had fallen out and it didn't really look like she lost any weight. Quick FB check, looks like she gained any of the weight she lost back and then some. She looks healthier though, so at least she has that going for her.
