When Should You Seek Oklahoma Weight Loss Surgery?
Many patients who seek
Oklahoma weight loss surgery do so because they have run out of options. They
need surgical intervention after they’ve exercised all other means to lose
weight and are at serious risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, cardiovascular
issues, stroke, arthritis and the countless other diseases and conditions
associated with obesity. What are these means that should be tried first?
·
Consult your doctor or a nutritionist to come up
with a diet plan that fits with your lifestyle. US News and World Report devotes
an issue each year to the healthiest diets, with the Dash Diet, Mediterranean
Diet, and TLC Diet usually ranking among the best.
·
Living a more active lifestyle. This does not just
mean hiring a trainer or buying P90X tapes. This could be dangerous if you
haven’t exercised in a while. Always consult a doctor before starting an
exercise program. It could just mean taking the stairs more or walking instead
of driving. By getting off the couch, you’ll be able to start the path to the
150 minutes of exercise and twice a week strength training that the Mayo Clinic
recommends for adults.
If you’ve tried to exercise and diet more and still have a BMI over 40
and are at risk, weight loss surgery may be in your best interest. They are
very low-risk and highly effective. The NIH has done countless studies on
weight loss surgeries and a large percentage of patients do find that their
obesity-related health complications are resolved or diminished.
There are many different types of bariatric surgeries out there to
consider, so be sure to consult a bariatric surgeon to get an idea of what
options are available to you.
