Bariatric surgery is a life-saving option for those struggling with the overwhelming problem of obesity, but it isn’t a magical, wave-of-the-wand and you-’re-cured solution. That doesn’t exist. Instead, the procedure will require that you re-learn eating. Your habits of consumption, as well as what you consume, will need to change. Bariatric eating is an entire lifestyle change, and failing to embrace it could mean that your bariatric procedure could fail as well, minimizing the weight loss experienced.
