Gastric bypass surgery is a procedure which helps achieve long term weight loss. If you’re suffering with obesity, have exhausted all methods of diet and exercise to manage your weight, and still have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or over, a gastric bypass can help you lose 55-70% of your excess body weight within 12-18 months of surgery.
The procedure involves reconstructing the digestive system to change the way your stomach and intestines manage your food intake. The stomach is made smaller by creating a pouch that restricts the amount of food you can eat. It’ll also result in a reduction in hormones that make you feel hungry, and an increase in hormones that make you feel satisfied, reducing overall appetite. This can help you lose weight safely and effectively over time.
Having gastric bypass surgery can help you to achieve your long-term weight loss goals. You may find that significant weight loss will lead to an increase in energy levels, better mobility, and a number of quality of life improvements, such as greater choice of clothing styles which would have felt uncomfortable previously.
Gastric bypass surgery has been known to aid the improvement of a number of weight-related health conditions, such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
Once you start to see the results from your procedure, you may be able to live a more active lifestyle with family and friends, and feel more confident in social situations because of your slimmer body.
As with any surgical procedure, it’s important to learn about any potential risks that the gastric bypass surgery may pose, however small, so that you can weigh these up against the benefits of treatment. Your specialist weight loss practitioner and expert surgeon will be happy to discuss any possible complications and give you detailed information about the procedure.
As a guide, these may include bleeding, infection, scarring, pain and reflux.
If you’re suffering with obesity, have a body mass index (BMI) of 35 or over, if you’re committed to making a lifestyle change, and if diet and exercise alone have proven unsuccessful in managing your weight. The gastric bypass could be the answer to shedding your excess weight and living a healthier life.
Gastric bypass surgery will help you lose weight by restricting your food intake and absorbing fewer calories. You’ll need to make healthier food choices and engage in regular planned exercise to ensure and maintain your results.
