Weight loss surgery is neither elective nor cosmetic, but a necessary step to reclaim health for a growing number of people defined as clinically obese.

In this show, host Maggie Philbin is joined by bariatric nurse Toni Russo, from the Patient Advisory Service and health and beauty journalist Melissa Murphy, to discuss exactly what weight loss surgery entails.

Topics discussed include:
• Gastric bands, gastric bypass and the duodenal switch;
• Why weight loss surgery is becoming more common;
• The appropriate candidate for bariatric surgery; and
• Post-surgery lifestyle changes.

In the final segment of the show, our experts answer your email questions about who qualifies for obesity surgery on the NHS and the necessary dietary changes involved.
