• Corrective surgery for excess skin is costly and
  it can be an issue!

In most cases, weight loss after bariatric
surgery is gradual. In these situations, the body
and skin have time to slowly adjust to the
changes. Yet, in some cases, patients may
experience excess skin which needs to be fixed
using cosmetic surgery. Insurance companies do
not cover the surgery unless it is deemed
medically necessary as in cases where a rash or
infection may be caused due to a surplus of
droopy skin.

• It might lead to an increase in use or alcohol
  abuse.

Alcohol abuse increases in patients significantly
after the weight loss procedure. A study
published in JAMA shows the same. The study
examined patients who had gastric bypass surgery
at different time durations post-surgery, like
one, three, six, and 24 months. There are also a
few other theories that explain the connection
between weight loss surgery and alcohol abuse.

• Quitting Soda is Essential

Yes, you heard it right. Carbonated beverages
introduce air into your stomach, so, theyre a
big no. The air can further create gas, adding
pressure to the stomach. This leads to
unnecessary expansion of the stomach and might
undo the results of bariatric surgery. You can
replace soda with lots of water intake.

• If we compare it to doing nothing at all, the
  risks of surgery are lower.

Weight loss surgery is a risky procedure. At
least it has developed a reputation. These days,
the procedures are much safer and have improved
over the years. On the other hand, the risks of
staying obese are far more dangerous, including
stroke, diabetes, heart disease, and even
death. If you are suffering from Heavy weight so

your troubles and give you good advice.
