Nowadays, many people should not feel unfamiliar with weight loss surgery, because this type of surgery has very good effect on treating severe obesity and has become a regular means of weight loss in the United States. According to statistics, weight loss surgery has developed to the point where the long term re-fat rate is only 5%-10%, which is much better compared to those traditional weight loss methods. It is precisely for this reason that many people hear that weight loss surgery can not only lose weight quickly, but also effectively prevent re-fat, but it is not done to say goodbye to obesity for good! You should know that weight loss surgery is through the transformation of the gastrointestinal structure to achieve the effect of limiting food intake and nutrient absorption, in the period just after surgery, the body is still in the adaptation period, can not eat normally, only through the liquid or semi-liquid way to get nutritional supplements, fat is also because of the lack of energy to be consumed in large quantities, so to lose dozens of hundreds of pounds within a year. Surgery can only play a role in the transformation of the gastrointestinal structure, and the real weight loss is during the adaptation period after the surgery. In the period after surgery, eating is greatly restricted, resulting in the body not getting enough energy from the normal way, but only through the consumption of fat to maintain, this time should pay special attention to nutritional supplements to prevent complications of surgery. This is also a time to test the team of doctors who perform bariatric surgery, because most of the complications occur during this time, and if that team of doctors is not professional enough, the probability of the patient’s risk will also become greater. This is why it is important to consider this as one of the indicators when looking at the team of doctors. About a year after the surgery, the body has adapted to the modified stomach and intestines, and the diet will be the same as normal people, except that the amount of food will be much smaller than before, and this is one of the reasons why weight loss surgery can achieve long-term weight loss. But it does not mean that this will not necessarily regain weight. The essence of obesity is that the body takes in more energy than it consumes, and eventually it all becomes fat and gathers on the body. After a weight loss surgery, although the amount of food becomes smaller, but if you do not exercise and other ways to burn them off, the excess energy will turn into fat and make you fat again. Likewise, if a glutton keeps eating, it will lead to regain weight. Some people may be picky eaters, making their nutritional intake unbalanced, with some related symptoms, and this problem may become more pronounced when they eat less. So generally good bariatric surgery team will have a special health management team to give patients reasonable dietary advice and design appropriate recipes according to their personal situation to ensure that they will not regain weight despite the nutrition, which of course finally depends on the patient’s spontaneous cooperation to be effective. This is also the reason why they want the patient to go for a review after the surgery, so that they can make the appropriate adjustments after learning the situation, and if necessary, psychological counseling or intervention. In fact, we should all realize that there is no weight loss method that will never regain weight, and that we must start by changing our mindset in order to lose weight. Although weight loss surgery is effective, it also requires the patient to have the determination to change and a professional health management team to back it up. Instead of feeling that you have no worries after the surgery, this will not only make the weight loss surgery ineffective, but also irresponsible to yourself.
