  • 3 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE GOING FOR WEIGHT-LOSS SURGERY
September 27, 2019

If you’re planning to have a weight loss surgery, it’s best to get prepared so that you can rest and recover properly following your operation. The advice below is offered to help you think ahead about what you will need before your procedure.

1. WEIGHT-LOSS SURGERY IS A METABOLIC SURGERY

When it comes to weight loss surgery, patients often confuse themselves between a weight-loss (bariatric) surgery and liposuction. These surgeries may seem to have similar aims, but they’re actually quite different.

Bariatric surgery (also known as weight loss surgery) is a metabolic surgery that helps obese patients achieve and maintain healthy weight by restricting hunger, in addition to adding a healthy diet and exercise.

Liposuction, on the other hand, is a cosmetic surgery designed to change the shape of the human body by removing fat cells. Unlike bariatric surgery, it is not intended to treat a patient who suffers from obesity.

2. 2-3 DAYS HOSPITAL STAY AFTER THE SURGERY

After weight-loss surgery, you will probably be discharged and able to go home in 2-3 days. You will be able to drink clear liquids on the day after surgery, and will then be on a liquid diet only for a period of time after surgery. Eventually, meals should be small to avoid stretching your remaining stomach. Your small stomach pouch will fill quickly and you will feel full after eating a very small amount of food.

The success of the surgery completely depends on the surgeon and the center from where you are getting operated. Hence, it becomes important to make a selection intensively.

Bariatric surgery is associated with massive weight-loss and improves, or resolves (cures), obesity-related co-morbidities. These co-morbidities include high blood pressure, sleep apnea, cancer, osteoarthritis, asthma and other obesity-related breathing disorders, arthritis, lipid (cholesterol) abnormalities, gastroesophageal reflux disease, fatty liver disease, venous stasis, urinary stress incontinence, pseudotumor cerebri, and more. The surgery also leads to improvement and remission of Type 2 Diabetes.
