If you are extremely overweight, bariatric surgery (weight loss surgery) may be an option for you. Obesity surgery limits your food intake or food digestion. The most common types of bariatric surgery are gastric bypass, gastric banding and stomach stapling. Though it may prove beneficial for your health, the surgery is not without risks and complications.
