Obesity, in its broadest sense, is defined as an excess of fat stored in the body. It’s also known as obesity, which refers to carrying too much weight. A person may be overweight due to excess muscle, bone, or water, as well as excessive fat. Obesity is not a disease in and of itself, but it is known to be a significant contributor to the onset of a variety of other illnesses. More food equals more calories consumed, which leads to obesity because our bodies store unused calories as fat. Obesity is not only a leading cause of other ailments, but it also makes it difficult for people to perform everyday tasks such as washing, walking, bathing, running, lifting, and so on. As a result, it should be treated as soon as possible to prevent further damage. Obesity puts a strain on the heart and can lead to serious health issues. The following are some of the issues:
● Heart disease
● Sleep apnea
● Varicose veins
● High blood pressure
● Type 2 diabetes
● Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement of a person’s weight. This is a measurement that is used to calculate your weight in relation to your height. Overweight is defined as a BMI of greater than 25. However, if it exceeds 40, you will fall into the morbidly obese category.
● Extra weight around your middle or stomach area increases your risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
● Blood tests may be performed to rule out thyroid or hormone issues that could cause weight gain.
In general, storing more calories means storing more fat. Obesity, on the other hand, has many main causes:
● Consuming more calories than your body requires
● Excessive alcohol consumption
● Physical activity is not practised.

● Changes in lifestyle – it has been discovered that combining an active and healthy lifestyle with healthy eating is the safest way to lose weight.
● Before eating anything, read the nutrition label to learn more about the calorie intake you should choose.
● Medications and herbal medicines are all available.
● Significant effort to lose weight through dietician-recommended dietary changes, exercise, or lifestyle changes.
● Surgery – Surgery may be beneficial for people who have been obese for at least 5 years and have not lost weight through other means such as diet, exercise, or medication. Weight loss surgeries are performed in a variety of ways to help them lose weight. They are as follows:
● LAGB (laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding) is a surgical procedure in which a silicone band with an inflated balloon is placed laparoscopically around the upper section of the stomach, creating a small pouch and a narrow passage. When you eat, the feeling of being full comes on quickly, and you cannot be eating. You will consume less calories as a result of this. This procedure involves the use of an adjustable silastic gastric band and is performed through five small incisions. It can also be completed in under an hour.
● The stomach size is reduced by forming a small pouch in the upper part of the stomach using surgical staples in laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery (LGBS). The lower stomach connects directly to the jejunum (middle portion of the small intestine), bypassing the rest of the stomach and the upper portion of the small intestine (duodenum). The small stomach makes you feel full faster, and a portion of the small intestine bypass reduces calorie and nutrient absorption, resulting in weight loss.
● Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy – Similar to a gastric bypass, but with fewer risks. The Gastric Sleeve is a new procedure that helps people lose weight by limiting their food intake (a restrictive procedure). Gastric surgeons use laparoscopic surgery to remove nearly 80 percent of the stomach in this process. The surgeons shape it into a tube or “sleeve” with staples, measuring 30 to 50 cc. This procedure takes about 1-2 hours to complete and involves dividing the stomach with endoplasm. Patients will begin drinking as early as the second day after surgery. Unlike gastric bypass surgery, this procedure does not require the disconnection of intestines, making it extremely safe and effective.
