Questions & Answers on "Obesity Surgery" (50)

My mother is suffering from overweight. Can she have a liposuction therapy as she is in her early 50's.

Female | 49

Liposuction or literally ‘sucking out fat’ is a suboptimal therapy for OBESE patients who desire weight loss. Liposuction can be considered as a treatment option for body sculpting, or slightly overweight patients who need to shape their abdomen in a particular manner. However, if one is obese, liposuction will cause a disproportionate loss of fat over the tummy, and leave space for fat re-accumulation in the future.

 

There are many weight loss options for a proportionate weight loss, eg. diet, exercise, or medications.

 

The healthier or ‘more natural’ way to lose weight in obese patients (with a BMI of more than 30 kg/m2) is bariatric or metabolic surgery, wherein the stomach is re-sized or bypassed using keyhole surgery. This surgery causes proportionate loss of fat all over the body up to 80% of the excess body weight, over a period of 1-1.5 years. This surgery is a safe and effective option if done by a certified surgeon at a high-volume center.

I want to lose weight my weight is 106 and age 16

Male | 16

You want to be healthier – that's great! At 16, weighing 106 pounds might be a concern depending on your height. Both underweight and overweight can have risks. Start with small changes like eating more fruits, and veggies, drinking water, and staying active.

Which vitamin is best for gaining weight

Male | 18

Gaining weight can be supported by maintaining adequate vitamin D levels. If your body is low in vitamin D, it may struggle to gain weight. Signs of deficiency include tiredness and frequent illness. To boost your vitamin D, consume fatty fish, and fortified cereals, and get daily sunlight exposure. Keeping your vitamin D levels up is essential for healthy weight gain.
