It Can Take More Than a Resolution to Lose Weight

Losing weight is one of the most popular New Year’s resolutions. Yet, you may find that as 2015 picks up and the stresses of life come back to us, this can be easier said than done. For many who are severely obese, bariatric surgery in Thousand Oaks may be one of the best ways to help lose the excess weight that may be causing a variety of serious health problems. 

There are several different popular weight loss surgery options including Lap-Band, sleeve gastrectomy, and gastric bypass, but all of them use the same fundamental idea to encourage weight loss. All of these techniques encourage patients to eat smaller portions by either decreasing the amount of food that can enter the stomach at any given time, decreasing the actual size of the stomach, or, in the case of the bypass, taking the stomach out of the digestive process entirely.

Weight loss surgery is not for people who are only a tiny bit overweight and simply want to lose 10 or 20 pounds in 2015. But, for those who are severely obese and concerned about the long-term health problems their weight may cause, weight loss surgery with University Bariatrics could be the perfect way to turn a resolution into reality.
