Growth Phases In Gastric SurgeryWhen patients consider gastric bypass surgery as a treatment for morbid obesity conception begins. They may need to lose weight to restore quality of life or improve diminished self-esteem, but most importantly for health reasons. Conception - an event conducted by the surgeon who partitions off most of the stomach creating a pocket or pouch that will hold one ounce of food. In most gastric bypass surgery procedures the digestive system is re-routed to bypass the intestine and shortcut to the bowel. This prevents too many calories from being absorbed and stored by the body in the form of fat. The patient wakes from the surgery a bariatric infant. Infancy - it is now possible for people who were morbidly obese to lose considerable amounts of weight. This is something that was not normally experienced by people in that category. The patients ability to lose weight is because when the gastric bypass surgery is over, they wake up with a stomach the same size as a tablespoon. The habits and behaviors that caused them to become obese are now completely unfamiliar to themand their body. Adolescence - all recipients of a gastric bypass reach a point in their recovery called adolescence. This is the stage when the patient starts to take risks in dealing with the foods that they are now forbidden to eat. It is this stage that most of the problems associated with the recovery and continued weight loss start to occur. This stage brings with it the desire to eat or consume more sugar, which can result in a sugar imbalance called dumping or the patient will consume too many starchy carbohydrates which will often result in vomiting. In some mild cases, patients only resort to snacking, which will cause them to begin to gain wait and cause a sense of panic since the surgery was designed to force them to lose weight. Patients can easily navigate through the stage of adolescence by following the outline for food consumption that they have been given. Maturity - the maturity stage begins when the patient fully understand the gastric bypass surgery system and has demonstrated that they can implement that system in the every day life. This stage largely reflects the patients understanding of their smaller stomach, how their body works and how to best work within themselves to achieve their goals for continued healthy living. A key to this stage is to realize that everyone goes through lapses in judgement, and that you can fight these breakdowns by knowing how to compensate for them. The patients experiences in the infant and teenage stages after their gastric bypass surgery will allow them to embrace all the positive elements associated with the adult stage. They will understand that their battle with obesity is not over, it is just starting and that if they continue to fight their old habits they not only win the battle, but win the war as well.
