This transforms the stomach into a narrow sleeve or tube-like shape, significantly limiting the amount of food it can hold and reducing hunger by affecting the hormone ghrelin.<\/p><p data-start=\"583\" data-end=\"975\">The process begins with a comprehensive medical assessment, including blood tests, imaging, and consultations with specialists to determine a patient\u2019s suitability. Once cleared, the procedure is performed <strong data-start=\"789\" data-end=\"809\">laparoscopically<\/strong> under general anaesthesia. Small incisions are made through which a camera and surgical tools are inserted, allowing for precise removal of a portion of the stomach.<\/p><p data-start=\"977\" data-end=\"1239\">The surgery typically lasts <strong data-start=\"1005\" data-end=\"1025\">60 to 90 minutes<\/strong>, and most patients stay in hospital for <strong data-start=\"1066\" data-end=\"1083\">1 to 2 nights<\/strong> for monitoring. Since the digestive system is left otherwise intact, nutrients are absorbed normally \u2014 though a guided post-op nutrition plan is essential.<\/p><p data-start=\"1241\" data-end=\"1527\">Following surgery, patients are placed on a carefully structured diet, transitioning from liquids to solid foods over several weeks. Long-term lifestyle changes, including <strong data-start=\"1413\" data-end=\"1480\">dietary education, exercise routines, and psychological support<\/strong>, play a key role in achieving lasting results.<\/p><p data-start=\"1529\" data-end=\"1720\">\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section

data-start=\"300\" data-end=\"320\">clinically obese<\/strong>, typically with a <strong data-start=\"339\" data-end=\"379\">Body Mass Index (BMI) of 35 or above<\/strong>, especially if they have obesity-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnoea.<\/p><p data-start=\"503\" data-end=\"797\">This surgical option is also suitable for individuals with a <strong data-start=\"564\" data-end=\"586\">BMI of 30 or above<\/strong> who have not achieved lasting weight loss through traditional methods like diet, exercise, or medication. It is often considered when obesity significantly impacts quality of life or poses serious health risks.<\/p><p data-start=\"799\" data-end=\"1028\">Candidates must be in reasonably good overall health and able to undergo general anaesthesia. Those with severe gastrointestinal disorders, untreated psychological conditions, or active substance abuse issues may not be eligible.<\/p><p data-start=\"1030\" data-end=\"1326\">Successful outcomes depend on <strong data-start=\"1060\" data-end=\"1105\">commitment to long-term lifestyle changes<\/strong>, including nutrition, physical activity, and follow-up medical care. A thorough pre-operative evaluation by a bariatric specialist is essential to determine individual suitability and to create a tailored treatment
