WHAT EXACTLY IS WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY?
Bariatric Surgery helps in losing weight, by
curbing the amount of food that enters the
stomach, as well as the number of calories
absorbed from food. This is achieved by
surgically separating the stomach into two
distinct pouches, one larger than the other. The
small intestine is subsequently linked to the
smaller stomach pouch, into which the food
consumed enters. As a result, a person who has
had Bariatric Surgery feels fuller quicker and
eats fewer meals, resulting in a lower calorie
consumption. Because gastric bypass surgery leads
to less meal digestion, the small intestine
absorbs less calories and nutrients.

The general medical guidelines for weight-loss
surgery are based on body mass index (BMI). BMI
is a formula that estimates body fat based on
weight and height. Adults with a BMI of 40 or
greater may benefit from weight-loss surgery.
