BMI is an arithmetic equation between the height and weight of the body. The resulting number expresses the patient's condition and whether he has an ideal weight or is overweight. BMI rates are slightly different for men and women and are different in adults than in children; For adults, the BMI is as follows : 18.5 to 24.9 indicates ideal weight 25 to 29.9 indicates excess body weight 30 to 39.9 indicates obesity 40 and more indicates morbid obesity
Cardiovascular disease One of the most dangerous complications of obesity that may lead to complications that cause death is cardiovascular disease, and this occurs as a result of high blood cholesterol and high blood pressure, which are the two most common causes of clots and cardiomyopathy. In spite of that, the success of losing a little weight, even slowly, improves the health of the heart and helps avoid such risks Diabetes There is a close relationship between diabetes and obesity, as most obese patients suffer from insulin resistance, which increases their vulnerability to diabetes. On the other hand, diabetics are more prone to gaining excess weight, especially with not controlling blood sugar levels, following a balanced diet, and maintaining appropriate medication doses regularly. cholecystitis Gallbladder disorders such as chronic inflammation or the formation of stones are associated with an increase in body weight, especially with the accumulation of fat in the abdominal area, although losing weight very quickly may also expose the patient to gallstones and acute inflammation in it. Therefore, doctors recommend following balanced regimens for weight loss to avoid such complications, and some of them also prescribe some medications to prevent gallbladder infections, especially after obesity surgery. cancer One of the surprising medical statistics is the association of cancer rates in the breast and uterus after menopause and tumors of the pancreas, colon, esophagus and kidneys with obesity Bone and joint infections Bones and joints of the body - especially the spine, knee joints and heels - bear the weight of the entire body, so every weight gain in body weight above the normal range appropriate for height leads to greater pressure on the vertebrae and joints With the increase in weight, the patient suffers from pain in the lower back, knee and foot joints, and it may develop into severe infections that impede movement and cause excessive pain. gout Gout is known for high levels of uric acid in the blood and its accumulation in the joints, causing difficulty in movement and severe pain. The rates of gout are high in obese patients, and rapid weight loss may also lead to it. sleep apnea disorder Disturbed and irregular breathing during sleep is one of the most common obesity problems, and these disorders may lead to sudden interruption of breathing, which increases the chances of stroke or heart disease. Stomach disorders and GERD The stomach secretes acidic juice to digest food, and the holding muscle at the bottom of the esophagus prevents this juice from leaving the stomach and moving to the esophagus. When this muscle fails to perform its function, what is known as GERD occurs. There are several risks that cause gastroesophageal reflux disease, such as: obesity Excessive consumption of caffeine and foods with sharp flavors and spices heavy smoking stress and anxiety Take a lot of painkillers such as ibuprofen pregnancy One of the most important symptoms that warn of gastroesophageal reflux disease Feeling of burning in the stomach, especially in the upper part of the abdomen Stomach fluid reflux causes a bitter taste in the throat bad breath Changing the tone and harshness of the voice Constant bloating and feeling uncomfortable Constant coughing or hiccups
Gastric Band Gastric banding is performed in order to reduce its size and thus reduce its ability to store large amounts of food. This ring is connected to a precise device that is placed under the skin, usually in the middle of the chest area, and through it the doctor can control the size of the ring after surgery Usually after 3 to 6 weeks of surgery, the doctor narrows the ring around the stomach by injecting a saline solution, and this step is done in the clinic without the need for general anesthesia Advantages of gastric banding The most characteristic of gastric banding is its simplicity, high degree of safety and speed of recovery after surgery with a very small wound This is in addition to the possibility of controlling the size of the ring and reducing the capacity of the stomach several times in the clinic without the need for general anesthesia again, and also it can be removed easily if the situation calls for it Disadvantages and risks of gastric banding The most important disadvantage of gastric banding is its weak ability to lose significant weight in a short period of time, unlike other obesity operations, and some cases have even experienced an increase in body weight years after surgery We find some risks that the patient may be exposed to after gastric banding surgery, such as: vomiting after eating quickly or eating large quantities of it, loosening or sliding the ring from its position, and exposure to bacterial infection Sleeve gastrectomy _ During the gastric sleeve operation, the doctor removes approximately 75% of the stomach, leaving a small part of it similar to a tube connected to the intestine, and the surgery is performed under general anesthesia and aims to reduce the size of the stomach radically Advantages of gastric sleeve surgery Sleeve gastrectomy gives obese patients a tremendous opportunity to get rid of excess weight at a very fast rate, ranging from 6 to 18 months. It also does not affect the intestines, and therefore the rate of absorption of important minerals and vitamins, and it is one of the least dangerous obesity surgeries. Risks and disadvantages of gastric sleeve surgery Unlike gastric banding, sleeve gastrectomy removes a large volume of the stomach in a radical way that cannot be reversed. Like other surgeries, the patient may be at risk of infection or blood clots Gastric Bypass Surgery Gastric bypass surgery is more complicated than the above-mentioned surgeries, as the doctor separates the stomach into two parts and connects the upper, smaller part directly to the lower part of the intestine.
Advantages of gastric bypass surgery Gastric bypass surgery leads to a reduction of more than 50% of the excess body weight during the first six months after the surgery and the weight loss continues for two years, and the patient can maintain the ideal weight for years after that. This surgery helps the patient to recover from complications of morbid obesity such as diabetes, high blood cholesterol level, arthritis, rapid heartbeat, breathing disorders during sleep and high blood pressure. Risks and disadvantages of gastric bypass surgery Patients may suffer from a lack of some important nutrients, vitamins and minerals as a result of poor absorption, which exposes them to anemia and osteoporosis As a result of the rapid transfer of food from the stomach to the intestines, some patients experience bloating, nausea, stomach pain after eating, or chronic diarrhea Bypass surgery is the most dangerous bariatric surgery, and the most common complications that occur are: cholecystitis, stones in the gallbladder, bacterial infections after surgery, and exposure to blood clots.
Bile is formed in the liver and then moves to the bile vesicle through tiny channels. During the digestive process, the gallbladder secretes that bile into the small intestine to break down and digest fats and absorb a group of vitamins and minerals after dissolving them As a result of storing bile in the gallbladder to concentrate it to become more effective in the process of digestion and absorption of fats, some stones may sometimes form from cholesterol, and when they are small in size, they do not cause any symptoms at all and do not require medical intervention
Chronic pain and stomach discomfort, especially after eating heavy meals Constipation or frequent diarrhea Yellow discoloration of the skin due to bile deposition high body temperature
Overweight Women are more likely to be affected than men Pregnancy frequency Over the age of forty
Organizing meals and eating them regularly Eat fish as a main meal at least three times a week Replace animal oil with vegetable oils such as olive or almond oil Avoid eating fatty foods rich in fat Eating fiber-rich carbohydrates such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables and berries reduces the formation of gallstones Egg yolks and seafood are rich in lecithin, which resists stone formation Avoid eating too many legumes, such as beans and soy, due to their ability to increase the concentration of cholesterol in the bile.
Gallbladder stones are only treated when they cause symptoms like the above, and if gallstones develop into serious complications such as acute cholecystitis or pancreatitis, surgical intervention is required to remove them. Cholecystectomy is performed under full anesthesia, either by laparoscopic or traditional surgical methods. Recently, doctors prefer laparoscopy in most cases because of its accuracy, efficiency and speed of recovery after the operation with few complications. In fact, we can live without a gallbladder, as the liver continues to secrete bile into the small intestine directly
The problems and complications of general surgery, laparoscopic surgery is characterized by a quick recovery, less pain after the operation, and no wound exposed to contamination or leaving a trace after the operation. Bariatric surgery is one of the minor surgeries and the patient can be discharged from the hospital on the same day of the surgery. Bariatric surgery leads to a significant weight loss as a result of reducing the size of the stomach and reducing the rate of absorption.
are two main types of obesity surgery Local obesity surgeries Local obesity surgeries, such as liposuction or liposuction, are performed in cases that suffer from the accumulation of fat in certain areas of the body, such as the abdomen and buttocks. Therefore, a doctor should be consulted before going for a specific surgery to choose the most appropriate for the case. Bariatric surgeries Doctors diagnose obesity by calculating the Body Mass Index (BMI) , which is a relationship between body height and weight. Normal rates differ between men and women and also according to age. The patient is considered obese when the body mass index reaches 35 kg / m 2, and with an increase in the mass index above 40 kg / m 2, the patient reaches severe morbid obesity with which we may find many diseases such as heart disease, diabetes or high blood pressure Obesity surgeries are performed on the digestive system, the most famous of which are : gastric sleeve surgery gastric bypass process Duodenal-pancreatic diversion
Cases with a BMI of 32.5 kg/m2 and suffering from diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, joint pain and sleep disorders BMI 37 kg/m2, even if it is not associated with other diseases The failure of slimming regimens to achieve the desired weight
Complications due to general anesthesia Wound infection and infection bleeding have blood clots breathing disorder are a number of symptoms that the patient may experience after obesity surgery, including : Lack of minerals, nutrients and vitamins, especially vitamin B12 Opening and leakage inside the digestive tract in the areas of surgical sutures Gastroesophageal reflux disease and acidity Low blood sugar level Chronic constipation and bowel and colon disorders Gallbladder inflammation and stones Intestinal obstruction
Eat a balanced diet featuring small meals Take vitamins and minerals to compensate for the absorption problems that may occur exercise regularly Make sure to drink plenty of fluids Constant follow-up with the doctor
The narcissist always feels overconfidence in himself that reaches the point of vanity and does not accept criticism in any way. In addition, we find the narcissistic person sees his abilities and talents as distinct in an exaggerated manner, while belittling the abilities and efforts of others, and this is in contrast to the personalities who enjoy self-confidence, as we find them always humble.
Personality disorders usually appear in adolescence and symptoms develop automatically over time, and the narcissistic personality begins at this age with several symptoms such as : Arrogance that makes others avoid dealing with the person Disruption of relationships and failure to make friends, as the sick person sees himself as better than everyone else and does not find the relationship that satisfies him Excess nervousness and tension when a person is exposed to a situation contrary to his desire and what he planned in advance Disruption in all interactions with people at work, home or neighbors

One of the reasons why a person has acquired narcissistic traits since adolescence is genetics. It plays an important role in shaping personality traits, in addition to social and environmental conditions such as : Parents pamper the child excessively and always achieve all his desires Supporting the child’s self-confidence in an exaggerated way, exaggerating and praising his abilities in an exaggerated way, and belittling the abilities of others, which makes him always see himself as better than those around him The exaggerated and unrealistic expectations that parents expect from their children Child abuse or neglect by parents
The treatment of narcissistic personality depends mainly on treatment sessions and talking with the psychiatrist, and the doctor may have to prescribe medications in limited cases who suffer from depression or another mental illness in addition to the narcissistic features Adjusting personal characteristics and feeling a noticeable improvement requires a long time, which may reach several years, so the patient needs patience and support from those around him in order to adhere to the sessions to reach satisfactory results.
Give balanced praise when someone does well Feel free to offer calm constructive criticism in negative situations Speak freely when the narcissist does something harmful to you Providing psychological support and directing the patient to seek treatment and follow-up with the doctor You can also take a stand if the person behaves inappropriately and refuses to admit his mistake
