Weight Loss Surgery is no Easy Way Out, it is the Way Out

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Bariatric surgery has been around for decades, but, due partly to the epidemic rise in obesity levels in the United States and partly to the increasing evidence that it is both very safe and extremely effective, it is becoming much more common. Weight loss surgery is an important tool for those suffering from severe obesity because people who are severely obese are typically thwarted in their weight loss efforts by hormonally driven feelings of hunger that most find impossible to ignore. Though studies show that the procedures offered by highly trained bariatric surgeons like Dr. Feiz are the best method for severely obese individuals to reduce the constant craving for food and achieve their weight loss goals goal, some incorrectly believe weight loss surgery is the easy way out. The medical reality, however, is much different.

The major health conditions associated with severe obesity include diabetes, cancer, stroke, and heart failure are very severe and must be taken seriously. Losing a substantial amount of pounds to reach a healthy weight is the only way for someone suffering from severe obesity to ward off these issues, and improve their quality of their life. Unfortunately, while traditional weight loss methods such as diet and exercise are often effective for someone who is only a few pounds overweight, the success rate of such courses of action for the severely obese are staggeringly low. In fact, studies show that the failure rate for weight loss efforts is a shockingly high 99%. For nearly everyone suffering from severe obesity and the many associated, debilitating health conditions bariatric surgery isn't the easy way out, it's the only way out.     

The truth is that the decision to undertake a bariatric procedure is a major one that is not always easy to make. Though weight loss surgery is proven to be extremely safe and effective, the fact remains that it is still surgery. Patients that go through a bariatric procedure experience a recovery period, during which time their diets are extremely restricted as their digestive system recuperates. Nevertheless, patients and doctors agree that the challenges are worthwhile because they consistently yield the weight loss necessary for a severely obese individual to reach their healthy weight
