For many, weight loss is a war with oneself: one-sided battles against dieting, cardio and self-doubt. Not to look good, but to be in control of your own health, to be healthy and excited in your body. Bariatric surgery marks for others the pinnacle of this odyssey. But what about that last question: how long will it be enough, and how do you make sure the changes are lasting?
In our company, Universal Medical Group (UMG), weight loss isn’t like the walk on the treadmill. It’s a transformative exercise that is hard on your body and soul. And we have been lucky enough to see for ourselves, years later, how bariatric surgery changes lives for months, years. Let’s discuss what bariatric surgery looks like, what you can expect and how to stay on the right path long-term.
The Magic of Bariatric Surgery You Need to Know!
And bariatric surgery is not only surgery to change your body but your life. Slimmer and healthier, maybe, mean that you are more lively, more sure of yourself, and better equipped to take on the world. A lot of patients pursue new interests, rekindle friendships and above all are empowered beyond belief.
These surgeries are effective on the spot — weight loss and better health, but surgery makes the real changes. And to keep those results going takes discipline, persistence and the mindset. There is no short-term solution to losing weight — there is a long-term commitment to your health with bariatric surgery.
What About How Long Will the Results Last?
Approximately 60 to 80 per cent of extra weight usually falls off in the first 12–18 months after surgery. It’s a super encouraging and exciting time where you’ll not only see the changes in your body but in your mind. The physical results are often apocalyptic, with diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure regressing or even going into remission.
But, a lot of the weight loss will happen within the same period, because it is all up to you if you live a healthy life. The truth is, there’s only a long-term solution: diet, workouts, and support. And many patients who adopt such practices keep their weight for years.
The Road to Success: Habits that Make You Feel Good In The Long Run
Bariatric surgery provides the edifice but your day-to-day practices are what’s going to make your weight loss journey work long-term. Following surgery, eating right is key. This means consuming lots of vitamins and minerals, eating less, and listening to your body. Many people report that their cravings change after surgery, and the foods that we crave can now be healthier.
Exercise is another essential factor. Although it might sound hard, exercise is a must when you’re trying to stay weight-loss motivated. Walk, swim, ride a bike — all exercise will keep your metabolism humming and your body firm.

A New Life: More Than Body & Mind.
And bariatric surgery is not only surgery to change your body but your life. Slimmer and healthier, maybe, mean that you are more lively, more sure of yourself, and better equipped to take on the world. A lot of patients pursue new interests, rekindle friendships and above all are empowered beyond belief.
Consider one of our patients, Sarah. She was severely obese and in various ill-health states when she came to us. She no longer only lost more than 100 pounds after her bariatric surgery but also had more energy and confidence. She goes for walks with her family now — which was something she never would have done. Her transformation is a triumph of bariatric surgery.
