Bariatric Surgery, also known as weight loss surgery, is a medical procedure that helps people who are severely overweight or obese lose weight. This type of surgery typically involves altering the size of the stomach in order to limit food intake and encourage feelings of fullness. It’s not a quick fix or an easy way out; patients need to commit to changes in diet and exercise for long-term success. But for those struggling with obesity-related health issues such as diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea, bariatric surgery can be an appropriate solution. It’s important to do your research and consider all options before deciding if bariatric surgery is right for you – but for some people, it truly is a game-changer when it comes to achieving weight loss and improving overall health and wellbeing.
