I'm bringing you part one of a two-part series on the risks and benefits of weight loss surgery. If I sound like a glass-half-empty person on this issue, you would be correct. I cannot emphasize enough that there are consequences to the surgery that need to be considered before making such an important decision.

Usually, surgeons prefer a BMI of 40 before they will consider gastric bypass surgery. BMI is calculated as follows: [wt (lbs)/ ht (in)2] x 703

weight: 240 lbs, ht: 70 in: 240/(70 x 70) =0.049 0.049 x 703 = 34.4 BMI

A BMI of 34.4 would not qualify someone for gastric bypass.

Dr Michael Gregor has a short video discussing some of the consequences. It can be found here.

If you have any questions and would like me to address them, feel free to email me on my contact page, which is on my Healing outside the box website.
