Why Bariatric Surgery

Benefits of Bariatric Surgery and Why you sould choose it.

Bariatric/weight loss surgery is the only valid treatment option that leads to sustained weight loss in patients suffering from clinically severe obesity. Most people who suffer from obesity have usually tried all methods to lose weight without success before they consider surgery.

Bariatric surgery is recommended for people who are suffering from morbid obesity (if they are more than 30 to 35 kg above their ideal body weight). Bariatric surgery is also a very good treatment option for obese people who suffer from type 2 diabetes mellitus. Surgery leads to significant improvement in diseases associated with obesity such as- diabetes, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, knee joint pains, PCOD, obstructive sleep apnoea, fatty liver disease, infertility and so on.

Bariatric surgery is the only way people can lose massive amount of weight. It is also easier to maintain the weight loss after surgery than after any other method of losing weight. Surgery also leads to a significant improvement in the quality of life of these patients.

On a daily basis, we see patients who put in their heart and soul into their efforts to lose weight. They have been to every weight loss clinic, celebrity dieticians, gyms, yoga gurus and weight loss retreats. Unfortunately, more often than not, they meet with disappointment and tend to yo-yo between weight loss and weight gain. This entire process is extremely disheartening and demotivating for the patients.

So, if you have tried hard to lose weight without success and the weight is bearing you down, you have come to the right place because bariatric surgery is the only way at the moment that can lead to sustained weight loss in patients suffering from morbid obesity.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How much weight can I lose after bariatric surgery and how much time does it take?

    Bariatric surgery leads to about 65 to 75% excess weight loss. Excess weight is calculated as actual weight minus ideal body weight. It takes about 12 to 18 months to lose this weight. Weight loss is very quick in the first 6 months and then it tends to slow down.

  2. Obesity is a chronic progressive disease. Diet and lifestyle modification are an integral part of management of obesity. Patients who embrace the diet and lifestyle modification after surgery tend to get better results. Some degree of weight regain is expected in the long term but it can be controlled if the patient is following a healthy lifestyle.

  3. After bariatric surgery, patients need to be on a liquid diet for about 15 days. This is followed by a phase of semi-solid or soft diet for another 15 days. After a month, most patients are able to have normal food, albeit in limited quantity. Initially the intake is very low but over a period of time, patients are able to eat better. It is also advised to have nutritional supplements in the form of protein supplement, iron, calcium and multivitamins. These will be advised by your doctor based upon your reports as well as the type of surgery.

  4. The cost of bariatric surgery depends on the type of surgery and the room category that you choose. At the moment insurance companies do not cover it routinely but evaluate on case to case basis. There is also an option of medical loan through which patients can get the facility of paying for the surgery in monthly EMIs.
