Why can I expect surgery to work, when I failed so many other weight loss remedies?

Surgery provides a control mechanism that is with you where ever you go. While it is still important to make good decisions and exercise on a regular basis, surgery makes these goals realistic for our patients. After bariatric surgery you must change your eating habits. If not, you’ll experience unpleasant side effects. On average, patients lose between 60 to 80% of their excess weight and keep the majority off for an extended period.
