Bariatric surgery is typically considered for individuals who are severely obese and have been unable to lose weight through other means like diet and exercise. Candidates usually have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher, or a BMI of 35 or higher with obesity-related health issues like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Before considering surgery, doctors assess factors like overall health, commitment to lifestyle changes, and understanding of the procedure's risks and benefits. Candidates must have realistic expectations and be prepared for lifelong changes in diet and activity levels post-surgery. Bariatric surgery isn't a quick fix, but it can be life-changing for those who meet the criteria and are dedicated to maintaining a healthier lifestyle.
