This thread discusses the Content article: Atherosclerotic disease associated with high rates of cardiovascular events within one year

The American lifestyle, unfortunately, is conducive to not only developing atherosclerosis but the subsequent complications that can develop from it. I believe making efforts to lower obesity would help to lower incidence rates of the initial disease but the complications as well.

As physicians, what are the best approaches to manage a patient with a obesity? What has worked in your practice? Of course, education is an obvious component but by itself, I don't see that it will help change lifelong habits.
