Best Way to Lose Weight within a Week

“OBESITY” is prevalent among the young generation and the major causes of obesity are found as not eating at the proper time, in taking junk foods, adding more sugary items, sedentary lifestyle, lack of exercise and the hereditary. Even after following strict diet regimen with proper exercise, one fails to lose weight, then the person may go for Bariatric Surgery to obtain healthy weight as well to rescue from heart, diabetic, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, and hypertension problems. 

Bariatric surgery causes weight loss by restricting the amount of food the stomach can hold, causing nutrients malabsorption or gastric restriction or both. Most of the weight loss surgeries are performed in a minimally invasive procedure, laparoscopic surgery. Gastric bypass, adjustable gastric band, sleeve Gastrectomy, Biliopancreatic diversion with a duodenal switch are the common bariatric surgeries. Let us see some of the procedures in brief.

Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy: In this procedure, 85% of the stomach is removed leaving a sleeve-shaped stomach. With surgical staples, the new stomach is closed. This procedure can be done either as an open surgery or laparoscopic. Since a part of the stomach is removed, the procedure remains permanent.
 

Biliopancreatic diversion or BPD: A Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch gastric bypass is quite identical to sleeve Gastrectomy. A part of the stomach is removed and a small portion of the stomach remains. The first portion of the small intestine is divided at the stomach outlet and distal segment is connected to the new stomach.
 

Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding: Upper part of the stomach is wrapped with a silicone band with saline to create a small pouch above the band. Below the band are the rest of the stomach remains. With the less consumption of food patients feel satiated. After surgery, the opening size can be adjusted by adding or removing saline from the band through a dock under the skin. 40-50% of weight loss is experienced by the patients in this procedure.

Make It Up With Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery is a weight loss surgery adopted by people suffering from obesity conditions. This weight loss surgery is carried out by, reducing the stomach size, removing a portion of stomach, re-routing the small intestine to small stomach pouch.

The serious condition of obesity, which is a chronic disorder, is hard to be treated with diet control and exercise alone. Bariatric surgery is an option for those who are not losing their weight by any other means or to those who are at serious medical condition due to overweight. Studies show that this surgery helps to lose of weight for a significantly long term and helps the people to recover from diabetes and cardiovascular risk factor, reducing the mortality to a greater extend.

Types of Bariatric Surgery:

There are four types of Bariatric surgeries to reduce the overweight condition.

• Adjustable Gastric Band
• Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
• Biliopancreatic Diversion with a Duodenal Switch
• Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy

Each one has its own benefit and risks. Doctor and patient together have to take the effort to choose the apt surgery among these, depending upon the health as well as other condition of the patients.

a) Adjustable Gastric Band:

Here a small bracelet type band is placed at the upper part of the stomach to which the throat opens to. A reduced opening is provided so that only less food is intaken through the throat. A balloon is placed inside the band which gets inflated and deflated with the amount of saline solution required to meet the needs of the patients.

b) Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy:

This is an emerging surgical procedure where almost 85% of stomach is being removed and only a small sleeve shape of stomach remains. This sleeve shaped stomach is closed with staples. This is an irreversible process as a greater part of stomach is removed from the body.

c) Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass:

Here in this surgery, the upper portion of the stomach is divided from the rest of the stomach portion and this portion is connected to the bottom part of the small intestine. This helps in reduced intake of food as the stomach portion is very small. A little amount of intake will give us a feeling of fullness and only less calorie is absorbed from the food.

d) Biliopancreatic Diversion with a Duodenal Switch:

This surgery deals with the removal of a small part of stomach and the first portion of small intestine is divided at the outlet of stomach. This distal segment of small intestine is then connected to the new reduced stomach.

Advantages of Bariatric Surgery:

• Reduces the food amount that stomach can hold.
• Excess weight loss of 40-50% approximately.
• Almost all surgeries are reversible and adjustable.
• Lower risk of vitamin and mineral deficiency.
• Produces significant long term weight loss.
• Reduces absorption of fat by 70% or more.
