Bariatric surgery:
A whole-health makeover
Bariatric surgery can change your life from the inside
out. It not only reshapes your body; it reboots your
health. For Magdolna Horvath, a desire to improve her
back health led her to consider a weight-loss procedure.
“I had taken off 80 pounds, but my back problems were
still aggravated by my weight,” she says. “My doctor
suggested bariatric surgery as a way to ease the pain.”
