The procedure for bariatric surgery is a moderately simple one in principle, but it can still be useful to know what is going to happen to your body. Essentially, the bariatric surgery procedure is designed to reduce your stomach size so you can reduce food intake. The surgeon essentially cuts into your belly and uses staples to alter the size of your stomach. It is important to realize that if you are over 350 pounds, it might be unsafe to do the initial monitoring of your stomach - so be sure to let your doctor know if this is the case!
