Did you know? Bariatric surgery is an operation that will fulfil your dream of getting rid of those excess kilos, by making changes to your digestive system. However, it is important to know what you must do before and after a weight loss surgery. Best results are achieved when one knows what to expect after surgery.
People who have tried to lose weight, know how difficult and challenging it is. Most people go through a cycle of weight loss and weight gain for many years before they contemplate bariatric surgery. Bariatric surgery is the only effective option that leads to sustained weight loss in patients who suffer from morbid obesity. There are many kinds of weight loss operations such as sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass operations, banded weight loss procedures and so on. When combined with diet and lifestyle modification these can help you provide a much more sustained long-term weight loss.
Bariatric surgery leads to weight loss through multiple mechanisms. Restriction of food intake, feeling of fullness after smaller meals, reduced appetite, mal-absorption of nutrients, hormonal changes, changes in the gut bacteria etc are some of the mechanisms that will help you to cut down on those excess kilos. Your bariatric surgeon will recommend the most suitable operation for you after a clinical evaluation. Undergoing a bariatric surgery will slash down your risk of fatal conditions like stroke and heart disease, sleep apnoea, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It also leads to improvement in joint pains, gout, PCOS, infertility and decreases the risk of many cancers associated with obesity.
