(1)
and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) . He needs to lose substantial amount of weight. Weight gain occurs
when the amount of calories consumed exceeds the amount the body uses via biological functions,
(1)

(1)
physical activity, chronic sleep loss, certain medications, and stress .
, Caloric restriction is central to weight loss as it creates the metabolic energy deficit required to lose weight
(6)
