Frequently Asked Questions About Bariatric Surgery
What is Bariatric Surgery for Weight Loss?
Bariatric surgery is the umbrella term for a variety of procedures that help with weight loss. These surgeries work mainly by changing the anatomy and size of the stomach to limit the amount of food you take in, and, in some cases, by altering your digestion process to improve fat metabolism.
What qualifies you for bariatric surgery?
There are some clear guidelines covering who is a candidate for bariatric surgery. These include the requirement that patients be morbidly obese, with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher. Or, they must have a BMI of 35 to 39 along with one or more medical conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension or sleep apnea.
Why is bariatric surgery done?
Bariatric surgery is the most successful long-term treatment for class III obesity. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), it is nearly impossible for people with class III obesity to sustain weight loss through diet and exercise alone.
Bariatric surgery works by changing how your body manages what you eat, allowing healthy diet and lifestyle changes to be effective for sustained weight loss and health.
How much weight do you lose with bariatric surgery?
Most people — about 90% — lose about 50% of their excess weight after bariatric surgery, and keep it off. Different procedures have slightly different results. The average weight loss after gastric bypass is about 70% of excess body weight. After a duodenal switch, it’s about 80%. Weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy ranges between 30% and 80%. These results are measured after a period of 18 to 24 months.
What are the advantages of bariatric surgery?
- Significant, sustained weight loss. Surgery is the only treatment that has been proven effective for class III obesity over the long term.
- Reduced hunger hormones and improved metabolism. Surgery is the only obesity treatment that rewires your body’s metabolic programming after obesity to prevent weight regain.
- Cholesterol and blood sugar management. Weight loss surgery often causes remission of diabetes symptoms and allows people with various metabolic syndromes to discontinue medications.
- A longer, healthier life. In addition to reducing diseases and discomforts related to obesity, weight loss surgery can actually extend your life. Large scientific studies have shown that bariatric surgery reduces the risks of death from any cause by over 40%.
How long does it take to recover from bariatric surgery?
You will likely spend a few days recovering in the hospital, then a few weeks recovering at home before you feel ready to go back to work. You may need to avoid strenuous activity for up to six weeks, and it may take up to 12 weeks to resume a normal diet.
Bariatric surgery offers a much-needed, long-term solution to a difficult, progressive disease. Obesity is very hard to beat, and without intervention, it has heavy effects on your health, quality of life and lifespan.
