If you do not qualify for sleeve gastrectomy, there are non-surgical weight loss options such ad gastric balloon and gastic botox. These are both performed with endoscopy and they help you to eat less food. Still they do not make you burn fat, these treatments take 6 months and during this time you should follow a special protein-rich nutrition program in order to lose weight in a healthy way. Nutritionist guide is included in the treatment.

Hello, gastric bypass surgery is recommended if your BMI is over 50 and you have type 2 diabetes. So that your insulin level could be kept under control. Otherwise sleeve gastrecotomy will be a suitable option for weight loss.

Hello, if you do not have type 2 diabetes you do not need an gastric bypass surgery and instead, we recommend sleeve gastrectomy. Before surgery for all patients we get approval of Chest Diseases Specialist, Cardiologist, Internal Medicine Specialist and Anesthesiologist. These doctors will examine you and will give their approval before surgery.
Would you suggest that I get a conversion from the sleeve to the MGB or Full Bypass?

Hello, after sleeve gastrectomy we expect achieving healthy weight within 2 years. After losing some weight it is normal to stop losing fat for a while and that time we recommend to do more exercise. For fat burning you should follow a healthy diet and exercise daily, simple math: you should burn more than you should take. If sleeve gastrectomy is not successful we do mini gastric bypass but before that a detailed blood tests and body check up is required.

Hello, you have a body mass index of 32.6 and if you could not lose weight by diet and exercise we could recommend you non surgical weight loss procedures such as gastric botox and intragastric balloon. These are both endoscopic methods and they will help you to follow a diet easier. Within 6 months you could lose weight in a healthy way, you will have a special nutrition program written by a nutritionist.

Hello, your body mass index is 36.6 and you are qualified for sleeve gastrectomy surgery as it is recommended for those with BMI 35+. After the surgery you will have a nutrition program and within 6 months- 1year you could achieve your healthy weight. Losing weight will help you to overcome your back pain and also will prevent other health problems related to obesity.
Would I be better off with a gastric bypass or a gastric balloon?
Sleeve gastrectomy

Hello, we could recommend sleeve gastrectomy surgery rather than gastric bypass. Intragastric balloon will have a limited effect and once it is removed you could gain weight again. According to your bmi it looks like gastric sleeve is the best option.
