Body mass index (BMI) is a way of telling if you are at a healthy weight. Use the chart to figure out your BMI.
Bariatric surgery is a procedure that helps you lose weight. In vertical sleeve gastrectomy, about 80% of the stomach is removed.
For the surgery to work, you must change your diet and lifestyle. In most cases, the surgery is not reversible. So if you’re considering surgery, learn all you can about it before you decide.
Before surgery, tests will be done to check your health. You will be watched and kept as comfortable as possible throughout surgery and recovery. After surgery, you may stay in the hospital for one or several days.
