Every person is different and responds differently to different treatments. Weight loss surgery is a tool to help you lose weight and no matter which procedure a person chooses, each of them requires effort and commitment on the part of the individual. This includes following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, following-up regularly with a physician and attending support group meetings and one-on-one psychological support. There have been cases where patients have not lost enough weight or do not lose the amount of weight they expected, but typically a person’s success is directly related to their commitment to the post-surgical program and recommendations, since the surgical process is only part of the overall equation.
