Thanks for checking out my "Bariatric Surgery for Weight Loss" video. Comment your thoughts below.

Opting in for major surgery isn't easy. Especially, one that is promoted to bestow life-changing results. And in the haze of Doctor's advice, concerns from friends, and ridicule from parents one wonders what's what with bariatric surgery.

First, Bariatric surgery is an umbrella term for weight loss procedures like gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and adjustable gastric band. The idea of it is to restrict the volume of our stomachs. And to inhibit weight loss thru surgical interventions like wrapping a band around our stomachs, stapling them, or rerouting our intestines. In the end, we should feel fuller sooner, thus resulting in fewer calories eaten and more weight loss.

Now, if we zoom out and wonder how long surgeries like these have been around we see that no one in the 1500s, 1800s, or even early 1900's ever heard of any intervention of this kind. Not until 1954, less than 100 years ago when Dr. Kremen and his team performed the first gastric bypass surgery.

And from the first surgery to today, a quarter-million of Americans will undergo bariatric surgery annually with an estimated 20 or more million people qualifying to get it if they want.

This leads us to the big question, should we do it?
