I have to say that I am becoming a bit desperate. It seems that I just cannot handle my obesity anymore. And I am not sick or anything, I just eat too much! Well, I like eating, but the problem is, I also like junk food and that brought me to this question – is bariatric surgery expensive and what exactly is done during that procedure?

We could call it stomach bypass. Simply put, one part of your stomach will be bypassed as if it does not have any function and that will enormously reduce its volume and of course, the amount of food you can put in it. So, you will feel filled up much sooner and with a mush lesser food amount. And the price for that is not small, from 18000 to 22000 dollars.
