How Bariatric Weight Loss Surgery Works
Weight loss surgery works by changing your stomach and digestive system so that you:
- Absorb fewer calories and nutrients
- Eat smaller portions of food and become satisfied more quickly
Of course, weight loss surgery is a tool, not a cure. You’ll achieve successful weight loss and better health through a life-long commitment to exercise and healthy eating.
Is Weight Loss Surgery for You?
Weight loss surgery can help address weight-related health conditions including:
- Fatty Liver Disease
- Heart disease
- High Blood Pressure
- Osteoarthritis
- Sleep Apnea
- Type 2 Diabetes
If you answer “yes” to any of the following questions, weight loss surgery may be right for you.
- Do you have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher?
- Do you have a BMI of 35 or higher, plus a serious weight-related health condition?
- Does your weight limit your ability to participate in family, recreation or work activities?
