From the provided info, yes you are good candidate for bariatric surgery but extra info are needed to decide gastric sleeve or gastric bypass
Hi there, you are an excellent candidate for a Bariatric procedure, and I know there are a lot of them, like Gastric Bypass, Gastric Plication, or VSG (Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy). I suggest you have a consult with a certified Bariatric Surgeon, so we can recommend the surgery that best suits your needs, taking into consideration your age, your underlying medical conditions, and your goals. In your case, I would recommend considering a VSG (Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy) this surgery will help you to have better eating habits and a healthier lifestyle. At 233 Lbs. and 5'5 the BMI is 38.8 Kg/m2, this establishes a diagnosis of obesity class II, the sleeve gastrectomy has shown to be a very effective metabolic procedure in obesity remission and control of metabolic diseases, helping you to achieve a healthier lifestyle. I hope you can find the results you are looking for! - A.L
