Weight loss surgery, has proven to be the most effective tool for patients who need to lose a substantial amount of weight.
For very obese patients it has the greatest results, by far, when compared to dieting, exercise, lifestyle modification or a combination of those.
Some of the procedures also help eradicating many associated medical illnesses such as diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, joint and back pain, lethargy, shortness of breath, high cholesterol, hyperlipidemia, infertility, difficulty achieving pregnancy, migraines...etc.
As we know, the surgery is not an easy fix. For best long-term results, one must commit to a healthier lifestyle. For those who are committed to getting their life back by losing a massive amount of weight and staying focused long-term, it’s a worthwhile endeavor which can completely transform your life.
A RECENT STUDY PUBLISHED IN THE BRITISH JOURNAL OF MEDICINE showed evidence that people on various types of diets do lose weight and become healthier over the first 6 months. However, those results virtually disappear by the end of 12 months.
