You go to the gym every day, you have been walking or jogging or running, you have tried all the diets, but after all those efforts you have still not achieved your weight goal. If this sounds familiar to you and you’re actually looking for some solutions, then this article is for you!
Having a good and healthy life is essential for everyone but for people with extreme and excessive obesity, it becomes an everyday challenge. Exercise and diet alone often fail to effectively treat severe obesity. This results in a person losing motivation to try losing weight. But this does not have to be the end of everything. With the advances in technology and medical innovations, now even severe to extreme obesity can be successfully treated. Bariatric surgery is one such advance that treats severe obesity and many life-threatening conditions associated with obesity. Let’s know more about bariatric surgery.
What is bariatric surgery and who needs it?
There are many types of weight loss surgeries that are collectively known as Bariatric Surgery. It is an operation that treats obesity and helps you lose weight by making changes to your digestive system; such as making your stomach smaller thereby reducing your food intake at one time and making you feel full sooner. Also in some cases, with surgery, changes can be made in your intestinal pathway to achieve weight loss.
If someone has severe obesity and has not been able to lose weight by any other methods such as lifestyle treatment or medications, Bariatric Surgery becomes the best option. It is generally recommended for those who have body mass index (BMI) of 37 or higher. In some cases, you may qualify for certain types of weight-loss surgery even if your BMI is 30 to 34 and you have serious health issues due to excess weight. Bariatric surgery can treat and improve many serious weight-related health problems such as:
• Heart disease
• High blood pressure
• Severe sleep apnea
• Type 2 Diabetes
• Stroke
• Osteoarthritis
• PCOS & Infertility in women
• Back problems
• High Cholesterol
