Overcome the Challenges of Obesity
Obesity is a chronic disease diagnosed when your BMI is over 35. This means it doesn’t go away, even after a successful bariatric surgery. You have the disease in remission, but you’re always at risk for weight regain. It’s important to understand that bariatric surgery is just a tool. Your body undergoes several changes that might hinder your progress, not because of failure, but because it’s simply how your body reacts.
At Aloha Bariatrics, our goal is to help you identify obstacles and provide necessary strategies to overcome them. If you’ve had bariatric surgery, you know how challenging the journey can be. But you’re not alone. Let our pre- and post-bariatric surgery group offer reassurance and guidance to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle and achieve your health goals.
