It is easy to lose weight, but it is much more difficult to keep the weight from returning, because your body is always trying to maintain its weight.

Bariatric surgery helps to achieve a long-lasting weight loss. After surgery, the normal anatomy of the stomach changes, appetite and hunger decrease and a feeling of fullness will be achieved in smaller portions, as a result – fewer calories will be consumed.
