How Bariatric Weight Loss Surgery Works
Weight loss surgery works by changing your stomach and digestive system so that you:
- Absorb fewer calories and nutrients
- Eat smaller portions of food and become satisfied more quickly
Of course, weight loss surgery is a tool, not a cure. You’ll achieve successful weight loss and better health through a life-long commitment to exercise and healthy eating.
