Life after bariatric surgery
After your surgery your doctor will provide you with ongoing support and a detailed care plan.
After bariatric surgery, regular post-operative follow up visits are important to ensure your complete recovery and a successful outcome. The discharge instructions will have the periodical follow-up visits listed. Your first visit will be scheduled two to four weeks after surgery. You will be required to visit your bariatric surgeon regularly – six weeks, three months, six months, nine months and then annually.
Enjoy the life you always wanted.
Following bariatric surgery, your eating habits, lifestyle, and energy levels may have changed. To ensure the upkeep of your new figure, it is important for a strict lifelong aftercare plan to be implemented and followed.

The effect of a gastric bypass on diabesity
Obesity and type 2 diabetes are heavily linked conditions, so much so that those with both are often regarded by health professionals as having diabesity. Whilst a variety of genetic and lifestyle factors can cause type 2 diabetes, obesity is the primary cause.
In those who have developed type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance is built by the body. As a consequence, the body’s ability to regulate its blood glucose levels is impaired. This is because a type 2 diabetic’s pancreas is unable to produce enough insulin to keep up with the body’s demands. This results in too much sugar circulating in the bloodstream and eventually creates disorders of the circulatory, nervous and immune systems.
