Deciding to have surgery is not an easy choice, but for those who have tried to lose weight on their own, sometimes surgery is the only way to lose the excess body weight and to stay at a healthy weight for many years to come. The advantages to bariatric surgery are clear:
- Steady and consistent weight loss over time
- Reduced dependence on medications for High Blood Pressure and Type II Diabetes
- Increased mobility
- Reduced risk of heart attack, high blood pressure, stroke and sleep apnea
Diet and exercise are an important part of any weight loss program, even with bariatric surgery. However, many patients that practice a regime of only diet and exercise regain their weight back over time, and in some cases, more. Studies have shown the only truly effective way to lose weight and to keep it off long-term is with surgical intervention.
