As tempting as this magical pill is, I don't think I'd do it. Sure, I'd love to lose 20 lbs -- and the idea of breaking the cycle is appealing, too. But I think it'd be easier to do it gradually and really earn it, because that'd mean slowly making all of those lifestyle changes I'd need to make anyway to keep the hot new bod and addressing all of the self-esteem issues that come with being off from whatever I think my goal is.
The other thing is that just because the fat is removed doesn't mean there'd be any muscle tone underneath to support it, so I'd probably look pretty scrawny and silly. For now, I'll keep the curves.
