Main Information

Choosing to pursue weight loss or bariatric surgery is a life changing decision. Although the type of surgery recommended by your surgeon is an important component in determining the amount of weight you may lose, so is your own willingness to make serious lifestyle and eating habit changes, so that the surgery doesn’t fail making the weight loss not as good as expected.
There have been some good clinical studies done comparing the different types of surgery; however there is still only limited data on the long-term (over 10 years) outcomes of the differing procedures which makes it difficult for surgeons to be sure about which procedure is best for you.
Choosing the right procedure for you, discussed in conjunction with your surgeon, will depend on the answers to a number of questions, including:
<ul>
 <li>Your BMI?</li>
 <li>Your age?</li>
 <li>Any obesity related illnesses?</li>
 <li>The degree of weight loss required?</li>
 <li>How quickly the weight loss is required?</li>
 <li>Your current eating behaviours? Sweet eater? Speed eater? Large portion eater?</li>
 <li>Your personality? Your will/sticking power? Ability to cope with lifestyle and image changes?</li>
 <li>And many more…</li>
</ul>
