Gastric bypass or banding surgery to treat morbid obesity is fast becoming an effective method of helping patients to reduce weight and improve weight-related health conditions. But, no matter whether you choose gastric bypass (like roux-en-y, fobi pouch or biliopancreatic diversion) or stomach banding (like lap-band), or any type of gastroplasty, it's important to realise that no bariatric procedure will help you normalize your weight in the long-term unless you adhere to the necessary post-operative dietary and fitness guidelines. Due to the severity of the typical diet after surgery, make sure you ask the bariatric clinic about what post-surgery patient support groups they have and what other patient help services are available.

Finally, before deciding on any type of weight reduction surgery, ask your physician for a full explanation of all your options, including non-surgical weight loss methods.

Laparoscopic or open bariatric surgery, such as gastric banding or bypass is not an easy solution to morbid obesity and weight loss. It is a serious surgical procedure, involving health risks. To produce lasting weight loss it requires a long-term patient commitment to eating a healthy diet and following a regular program of physical exercise. Life-long use of nutritional supplements may also be necessary. So, before deciding, discuss your options fully with your doctor. © 2003-2008 Bariatric-Surgery.Info - Terms - Contact - Information - Resources - Add URL
