Weight-Loss Surgery: A Cure for the Morbidly Obese?

Bariatric Surgery

Have you ever heard that a surgery can cure your obesity and bring back your life? Well with weight loss surgeries you can. But, it isn’t that simple.
Morbid Obesity is a stage where a person is so overweight, giving rise to various diseases thus putting his well being and life at risk. People who are obese suffer from several diseases such as: heart disease, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea,
high blood pressure, joint pain, Pulmonary Hypertension and may be even cancer. There are so many diet

plans which claim easy weight loss of several pounds in few weeks. Lesser calories intake than you burn is the magic line. But does this work on people who are extremely obese and in addition suffer from the several diseases it brings along. The answer is it does but only to an extent. When a person has tried many diets over the past few years and done his part by working out to the fullest and is still not losing weight, it’s time to look at other safe options. With the obesity rate rising at an alarming rate in the US, the revolutionary and safe procedure of weight loss surgeries can provide a life saving opportunity for the obese people. It will also help you eliminate the complication stemming out of obesity. More and more men and women these days are opting for this procedure. The person should be obese with a BMI of 40, to be eligible for this surgery. Also, it is right for patients who have tried and failed at natural diets and ways of losing weight. There are different surgeries performed depending on the needs and body of the patients:

 

  • Laproscopic or Lap-Band Surgery: This is the least risky and a reversible option which involves the adjustment of a silicone band around the top of the stomach.

     

  • Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery: This surgery involves removing 70% of the stomach and folding it into a long tube or sleeve.

     

  • Gastric Bypass Surgery: The most risky surgery involves dividing and stapling the stomach and then reconnecting the intestines.


The patients lose 60 percent of their weight during the first 6 months of the surgery and totally about 77 percent within a year. Surgery alone will not help maintain the results. The patients need to commit to a healthier lifestyle and exercise regularly. Post surgery, ensure you follow the suggestions and diet plans your doctor provides.
The choice to surgery should not be just cosmetic, but a long term treatment to obesity and healthy long lives. These surgeries can be risky. Hence, make sure you visit an experienced surgeon and then decide what is best for you.
