What Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric Surgery is weight reduction surgery in which an individual's stomach and fat tissues are surgically addressed through incisions. This procedure limits the gut’s capacity which helps to avoid overeating. After the removal of unwanted fat tissues through this procedure, the outer skin becomes saggy which looks unpleasant and embarrassing. This unpleasant experience can be overcome by considering tummy tuck.
What is Tummy Tuck/ Abdominoplasty?
Tummy tuck also known as abdominoplasty is a cosmetic plastic surgery performed by a plastic surgeon. This invasive procedure addresses the sagging skin of the abdominal area and corrects it. To do so, incisions around the abdominal area take place. In order to subsides the pain during the procedure, local or general anaesthesia is administered.

I had a GP I had to drop bc she was utterly OBSESSED with getting me to my “ideal BMI” through any means possible. Even when I told her I had not weighed that even when I was very young, eating extremely healthy and exercising daily.
Now I’m older, chronically ill, with a lot of medications and limitations that affect not only my weight but my ability to be active…. Like.. dude. Priorities?
It’s one thing to say “let’s see if we can help you lose a few pounds” vs “hey let’s get you down to 60 pounds less than you were in your absolute prime bc that what my chart says you should be” 🤨
I think the thing that drives me the most batshit about the medical fatphobia conversation is that the burden of proof feels so exactly backwards. Just from an obvious best practices standpoint???
Things like intentional malnourishment, intentionally incapacitating vital organs through surgery, denial of potentially lifesaving medical care until those things are done, etc.
Those are all pretty extreme. The kinds of things it feels like a “first do no harm” system should have a lot of solid evidence for before recommending or implementing them.
But they’re so bog standard and accepted and everyone from doctors to your own family will look at you like you’re a flat-earther when you suggest maybe we shouldn’t be defaulting to that.
#fuck doctors#and they so oversell bariatric surgery#and drugs that have serious side effects#without thinking WHO would benefit and who wouldn’t l#not kuro#medical trauma#fatphobia

Because my most popular post is about weight loss and how it's a crock, I get a lot of questions about various things, including bariatric surgery--just posted the link to the post I did about that--but also Ozempic/Wegovy, the once-weekly injectable semaglutide medication that was developed for diabetes but was found to have independent benefits on weight loss.
I always said that weight loss was like Viagra: when a medication came along that actually worked, it would explode. We'd all hear about it. Fen-phen in the 90s worked, but it was bad for your heart. Stimulants, like meth, may cause weight loss, but they do it at the cost of heart health, and raise your likelihood of dying young. Over the counter weight loss supplements often contain illegal and unlisted thyroid hormone, which is also dangerous for the heart if taken in the absence of a real deficiency. Orlistat, or "Alli," works the same way as the Olestra chips Lays made in the 1990s--it shuts off your ability to digest fats, and the problem with that is that fats irritate the gut, so then you end up with fatty diarrhea and probably sharts. Plus Alli only leads to 8-10lbs of weight loss in the best case scenario, and most people are not willing to endure sharts for the sake of 8lbs.
And then came the GLP-1 agonists. GLP stands for glucagon-like peptide. Your body uses insulin to make cells uptake sugar. You can't just have free-floating sugar and use it, it has to go into the cells to be used. So if your body sucks at moving sugar into the cells, you end up with a bunch of glucose hanging out in places where it shouldn't be, depositing on small vessels, damaging nerves and your retinas and kidneys and everywhere else that has a whole lot of sensitive small blood vessels, like your brain.
Glucagon makes your liver break down stored sugars and release them. You can think of it as part of insulin's supporting cast. If your body needs sugar and you aren't eating it, you aren't going to die of hypoglycemia, unless you've got some rare genetic conditions--your liver is going to go, whoops, here you go! and cough it up.
But glucagon-like peptide doesn't act quite the same way. What glucagon-like peptide does is actually stimulating your body to release insulin. It inhibits glucagon secretion. It says, we're okay, we're full, we just ate, we don't need more glucagon right now.
This has been enough for many people to both improve blood sugar and cause weight loss. Some patients find they think about food less, which can be a blessing if you have an abnormally active hunger drive, or if you have or had an eating disorder.
However, every patient I've started on semaglutide in any form (Ozempic, Wegovy, or Rybelsus) has had nausea to start with, probably because it slows the rate of stomach emptying. And that nausea sometimes improves, and sometimes it doesn't. There's some reports out now of possible gastroparesis associated with it, which is where the stomach just stops contracting in a way that lets it empty normally into the small intestine. That may not sound like a big deal, but it's a lifelong ticket to abdominal pain and nausea and vomiting, and we are not good at treating it. We're talking Reglan, a sedating anti-nausea but pro-motility agent, which makes many of my patients too sleepy to function, or a gastric pacemaker, which is a relatively new surgery. You can also try a macrolide antibiotic, like erythromycin, but I have had almost no success in getting insurance to cover those and also they have their own significant side effects.
Rapid weight loss from any cause, whether illness, medication, or surgery, comes with problems. Your skin is not able to contract quickly. It probably will, over long periods of time, but "Ozempic face" and "Ozempic butt" are not what people who want to lose weight are looking for. Your vision of your ideal body does not include loose, excess skin.
The data are also pretty clear that you can't "kick start" weight loss with Ozempic and then maintain it with behavioral mechanisms. If you want to maintain the weight loss, you need to stay on the medication. A dose that is high enough to cause weight loss is significantly higher than the minimum dose where we see improvements in blood sugar, and with a higher dose comes higher risk of side effects.
I would wait on semaglutide. I would wait because it's been out for a couple of years now but with the current explosion in popularity we're going to see more nuanced data on side effects emerging. When you go from Phase III human trials to actual use in the world, you get thousands or millions more data points, and rare side effects that weren't seen in the small human trials become apparent. It's why I always say my favorite things for a drug to be are old, safe, and cheap.
I also suspect the oral form, Rybelsus, is going to get more popular and be refined in some way. It's currently prohibitively expensive--all of these are; we're talking 1200 or so bucks a month before insurance, and insurance coverage varies widely. I have patients who pay anything from zero to thirty to three hundred bucks a month for injectable semaglutide. I don't think I currently have anyone whose insurance covers Rybelsus who could also tolerate the nausea. My panel right now is about a thousand patients.
There are also other GLP-1 agonists. Victoza, a twice-daily injection, and Trulicity, and anything else that ends in "-aglutide". But those aren't as popular, despite being cheaper, and they aren't specifically approved for weight loss.
Mounjaro is a newer one, tirzepatide, that acts on two receptors rather than one. In addition to stimulating GLP-1 receptors, it also stimulates glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors. It may work better; I'm not sure whether that's going to come with a concomitantly increased risk of side effects. It's still only approved for diabetes treatment, but I suspect that will change soon and I suspect we'll see a lot of cross-over in terms of using it to treat obesity.
I don't think these medications are going away. I also don't think they're right for everyone. They can reactivate medullary thyroid carcinoma; they can fuck up digestion; they may lead to decreased quality of life. So while there may be people who do well with them, it is okay if those people are not you. You do not owe being thin to anyone. You most certainly do not owe being thin to the extent that you should risk your health for it. Being thin makes navigating a deeply fat-hating world easier, in many ways, so I never blame anyone for wanting to be thin; I just want to emphasize that it is okay if you stay fat forever.

Do I want to lose weight, or do I want the priviledges that come with being skinny?
I’m very fat, and generally I don’t mind it. I’ve been deconstructing diet culture and fatphobia since 2013, and I love my body.
And sometimes it feels like being an ocean fish who is constantly aware of salinity.
Because the messages are always out there! Covert, overt, and unintentional!
My SIL had bariatric surgery last year, and continues to lose weight. And I notice, and yesterday when she picked up her kids we had watched, I noticed, and felt the comparison and disappointment about my own body start to creep in and up, and I began to wonder if maybe I could talk to my nutritionist about adding some weight loss goals.
The answer is no. No I can’t.
So then I have to ask and remind myself: when I look at her, losing weight, and start to feel jealous and like my body is gross, WHAT ARE THE UNDERNEATH MESSAGES?
I want to have a body people don’t judge as lacking when I walk in a room.
- losing weight will not get me that. I’ve lost weight - a LOT of weight - and people will ALWAYS judge your body. Maybe less, maybe more, but SOMEONE will ALWAYS have a negative opinion.
I want to wear cute clothes that fit me.
- Yeah that is absolutely a privilege I want. Not my fault that the fashion industry refuses to work with me, AND that I’m spending my money on grad school rn, not clothes, neither do I sew.
I want to feel good about my body.
- I do. Like, 90% of the time, I do feel good about my body. And years of losing weight have made me understand that for me at least, my weight has nothing to do with this. The worst I ever felt about my body was when I was 17, and weighed 175 (the “recommended” weight for my body), and I felt SO GROSS AND REPULSIVE ALL THE TIME. I feel good about my body when I’m keeping up on my hygiene, eating foods that I make at home and like, going for walks regularly and strength training, and being intentional with my outfits. REGARDLESS OF WEIGHT.
I want the advertised “health benefits” of being thin.
- Despite propaganda, weight loss does not cure anything I have. I would still have fibromyalgia, diabetes, anxiety, etc etc. I know it won’t, because I’ve lost hundreds of pounds over the years, and it never cured me of anything. My symptoms are best managed with stress reduction, consistent movement, and food I like that makes me feel good.
And so I end up back where I started. Yes, I want the privilege of cute, available fashion. Yes, I want the advertised promises of weight loss, but I KNOW they are a lie.
And I know the COST of intentional weight loss for me. Imaginary privileges and fashion access are NOT worth it.
Besides. It would only be temporary.

Stuck in the hospital until Friday (all going well but still, I lost the knife fight) and apart from the lack of wifi and hence enforced Tumblr absence, slightly amazed at competent patient first care. Like, dietitian did her measurements and said I might benefit from losing 5 kilo in a nonjudgmental way because the rest of me is solid muscle. Take that, last medical checkup vulture who tried to talk me into bariatric surgery.
(He also disrespected my yoga. I am now reaping the benefits of my yoga because when your core is strong, apparently having the abdominal muscles cut through doesn't hinder you much.)

What's your thoughts on the average weight increasing? For me personally the end goal would be body neutrality but idk if it's weird but I wouldn't mind if the average person kept getting fatter. Even beyond kink I think it could have some positives like fat people actually being accommodated in places like restaurants since most people would be fat now.
In terms of kink, population health and weight is a turn-off to me. Disinteresting at best and upsetting at worst because it's a bit too close to the kind of real-life fatphobic messaging that I took to heart and contributed to my eating disorder as a kid. As someone in my 30s, I was a child when the "war on obesity" shit was starting, so it's a particular sore point that did not get converted into a fetish for me.
As far as reality, I think population health and weight as a "scientific" field is so severely tainted by moral panic, flawed data obtained from systemically fatphobic sources, and is fundamentally built on assumptions that have been thoroughly refuted by robust research for decades now as to render it... I don't know, unworthy of any serious intellectual consideration I guess I'd say.
That is to say, I spent about 45 seconds looking to fact-check the assumption that human body weight actually is still increasing on average according to what any recent research has to say about it, saw that it looks like it's still the same phrenology-level of bullshit it's always been, and closed the tab with an eye-roll. Even within that whole circle, scientists don't even agree on why they think body weight has been increasing.
But let's say it was all true and people are getting fatter: no I don't think it would lead to systemic change for the benefit of fat people in the timespan of a few decades, in my opinion I think the moral panic would only get worse. We are talking about a society that still performs bariatric surgeries and pushes diabetes medication that can cause gastroparesis as a fun and cool way to lose weight for people who have no health conditions but just happen to be fat.
#Idk if this is a rude way to answer but it's a uhh... activating subject for me and I'm not an optimist by disposition to start with#I think I got an ask like this before and I've entertained this topic both times but#since it's not my wheelhouse I'm probably going to delete ones like it in the future#You might get the response you're looking for from like a health play or death feedist blog instead sorry 🤷#medical fatphobia#fatphobia

From UpToDate:
Indications for the surgical management of severe obesity were first outlined by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Development Panel in 1991 [16] and reviewed by the American Bariatric Society in 2004 [17]. Candidates for a bariatric surgical procedure include [18]:
●Adults with a body mass index (BMI) ≥40 kg/m2 with or without comorbid illness [19-29].
●Adults with a BMI 35.0 to 39.9 kg/m2 with at least one serious comorbidity, including but not limited to [30-47]:
•Type 2 diabetes [48,49].
•Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
•Hypertension.
•Hyperlipidemia.
•Obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS).
•Pickwickian syndrome (combination of OSA and OHS).
•Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
•Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
•Pseudotumor cerebri.
•Gastroesophageal reflux disease.
•Asthma.
•Venous stasis disease.
•Severe urinary incontinence.
•Debilitating arthritis.
•Impaired quality of life.
•Disqualification from other surgeries due to obesity (ie, surgeries for osteoarthritic disease, ventral hernias, or stress incontinence).
●Adults with BMI between 30.0 to 34.9 kg/m2 with one of the following comorbid conditions, although there is no long-term evidence of benefit to support routinely performing a bariatric operation.
•Uncontrollable type 2 diabetes [48,49] – The response of type 2 diabetes to weight loss following a bariatric operation is reviewed separately. (See "Management of persistent hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus", section on 'Bariatric surgery' and "Outcomes of bariatric surgery", section on 'Diabetes mellitus'.)
•Metabolic syndrome – The clinical implications and therapy of metabolic syndrome (insulin resistance syndrome, syndrome X) are reviewed separately. (See "Metabolic syndrome (insulin resistance syndrome or syndrome X)".)
•Consideration should be given for race. There is growing evidence that for individuals with Southeast Asian heritage, the BMI criteria can be lowered by 2.5 kg/m2 per class, related to a higher prevalence of truncal obesity (ie, visceral fat), which is felt to be more hazardous than peripherally located fat [50].
It should be noted that many bariatric surgery programs encourage (or require) patients to participate in lifestyle changes prior to surgery to demonstrate their commitment, but any resultant weight loss could decrease the patient's BMI to the extent that the patient no longer meets the NIH criteria at the time the surgery is finally scheduled, even though they met criteria upon entry into the bariatric surgery program. The overwhelming majority of bariatric surgeons feel that such a reduction in BMI should not prevent the patient from having surgery and will typically use the initial entry BMI.

Understanding the Different Types of Weight Loss Surgery in Ahmedabad
Weight loss surgery, also known as bariatric surgery, is a medical procedure that helps individuals struggling with obesity achieve significant and sustained weight loss. In Ahmedabad, there are several options available for weight loss surgery, each with its own benefits and considerations. In this blog, we will explore three common types of weight loss surgery in Ahmedabad: Obesity Surgery, Weight Loss Surgery, and Bariatric Surgery. By understanding these procedures, individuals can make informed decisions about their weight loss journey.
Obesity Surgery in Ahmedabad:
Obesity Surgery, also referred to as metabolic surgery, is designed to address metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, which are often associated with obesity. This procedure focuses on improving the body's metabolic processes and restoring hormonal balance. It aims to reduce the risks associated with obesity-related health conditions and improve overall well-being.
Weight Loss Surgery in Ahmedabad:
Weight Loss Surgery, as the name suggests, is primarily focused on helping individuals achieve significant weight loss. The procedure involves reducing the size of the stomach or rerouting the digestive system to limit the amount of food that can be consumed and absorbed. This results in reduced calorie intake and increased feelings of fullness, leading to weight loss. The two common types of weight loss surgery are gastric sleeve surgery and gastric bypass surgery.
Gastric Sleeve Surgery: This procedure involves removing a portion of the stomach, creating a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach. This restricts the amount of food that can be eaten and leads to reduced calorie intake. It also helps in reducing hunger and promoting weight loss.
Gastric Bypass Surgery: This surgery involves creating a small stomach pouch and rerouting the digestive system to bypass a portion of the small intestine. This restricts both food intake and the absorption of nutrients, resulting in significant weight loss.
Bariatric Surgery in Ahmedabad:
Bariatric Surgery is a comprehensive approach that combines both metabolic and weight loss aspects. It addresses the underlying causes of obesity, helps in achieving weight loss, and improves metabolic health. The surgery involves various techniques, including gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and adjustable gastric banding. The choice of procedure depends on individual factors such as body mass index (BMI), health conditions, and surgeon's recommendation.
Benefits of Weight Loss Surgery in Ahmedabad:
Significant and sustained weight loss: Weight loss surgery can lead to substantial and long-lasting weight loss, helping individuals achieve a healthier body weight and reduce the risk of obesity-related health conditions.
Improvement in obesity-related health conditions: Weight loss surgery has been known to improve or even resolve conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and joint pain. This leads to improved overall health and quality of life.
Enhanced metabolic health: Weight loss surgery can improve metabolic health by enhancing insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control, which is particularly beneficial for individuals with type 2 diabetes.
Psychological well-being: Achieving weight loss through surgery often leads to improved self-esteem, body image, and overall psychological well-being. It can help individuals regain confidence and improve their quality of life.
Conclusion: Obesity Surgery, Weight Loss Surgery, and Bariatric Surgery are effective options for individuals seeking significant and sustainable weight loss in Ahmedabad. These procedures offer various benefits, including improved metabolic health, reduction in obesity-related conditions, and enhanced overall well-being. It is crucial to consult with a qualified bariatric surgeon in Ahmedabad to determine the most suitable surgery based on individual needs and medical history. Weight loss surgery, when combined with lifestyle changes and ongoing medical support, can provide individuals with a life-changing opportunity to overcome obesity and improve their health and quality of life.

Who Should Consider Bariatric Surgery Over Liposuction?
Choosing between bariatric surgery and liposuction can be challenging for individuals looking to achieve weight loss and improve their health. Both procedures target body fat, but they serve different purposes and are recommended for distinct cases. Understanding the difference, especially with advice from the best bariatric surgeon in India, can help individuals make an informed choice about their health and weight loss journey.
Purpose of Bariatric Surgery vs. Liposuction
Bariatric surgery is a weight-loss procedure specifically designed for people with obesity who struggle to lose weight through diet and exercise alone. It addresses severe obesity and often provides a solution for weight-related health issues, such as Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea. By surgically altering the stomach and digestive system, bariatric surgery limits food intake or reduces nutrient absorption, resulting in gradual and sustained weight loss.
Liposuction, however, is a cosmetic procedure targeting small, localized areas of stubborn fat, like the abdomen, thighs, or arms. It does not address obesity or overall health but rather provides a sculpting effect for people close to their ideal weight.
Who Should Consider Bariatric Surgery?
1) Individuals with a High BMI
Bariatric surgery is ideal for those with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 35 or higher. Candidates with a BMI of 30 and above with obesity-related health issues may also qualify. The best bariatric surgeons in India can assess a patient’s BMI, medical history, and health risks to determine if bariatric surgery is the best approach for lasting weight management.
2) People Facing Obesity-Related Health Issues
For individuals with conditions such as Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, or high blood pressure, bariatric surgery can provide significant health benefits. Unlike liposuction, which doesn’t impact metabolic health, bariatric surgery often improves or resolves these conditions, offering a comprehensive health solution.
3) Patients Seeking Long-Term Weight Loss Solutions
Bariatric surgery offers a long-term weight loss solution, as it changes the body’s digestion process and metabolic function. Patients are likely to lose a substantial amount of weight over time and can maintain their results with a healthy lifestyle. In contrast, liposuction does not alter appetite or metabolism, making it unsuitable for long-term weight management.
4) Those Who Have Struggled with Weight Loss through Diet and Exercise
Individuals who have tried multiple weight loss methods without success may benefit from bariatric surgery. Bariatric procedures, such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, provide an effective weight loss method for those with obesity.
Final Thoughts
Bariatric surgery is a life-changing procedure that offers more than just weight loss—it can significantly improve quality of life and overall health. Consulting with the best bariatric surgeon in India is essential to understand if bariatric surgery aligns with your health goals, particularly if you face obesity-related health challenges.
