Bariatric Surgery is known as weight loss surgery. Bariatric Surgery causes weight loss by restricting the amount of food the stomach can hold, causing malabsorption of nutrients, or by a combination of both gastric restriction and malabsorption. Bariatric procedures also often cause hormonal changes. Most weight-loss surgeries today are performed using minimally invasive techniques (laparoscopic surgery).
Bariatric surgery is a good option if you have severe obesity and have not been able to lose weight or keep from gaining back any weight you lost using other methods such as lifestyle treatment or medications. Bariatric surgery also may be an option if you have serious health problems, such as type 2 diabetes or sleep apnea, related to obesity. Bariatric surgery can improve many of the medical conditions linked to obesity, especially type 2 diabetes.
BMI can be a useful tool to measure the excess weight and the grade of obesity that an individual is suffering from. It is calculated as a proportion of the weight and height of a particular individual. Generally, the higher the BMI, the greater is the percentage of fat in the body and consequently increased risk for various metabolic diseases.
The BMI of an individual can also be increased because of increased muscle mass as in bodybuilders and in medical conditions which lead to increased water retention in the body such as hypothyroidism, liver, and renal diseases.

The diet begins with liquids only, then progresses to pureed, very soft foods, and eventually to regular foods. You may have many restrictions or limits on how much and what you can eat and drink.
