Weight loss : It's so interesting how people look at surgery to lose weight. It is certainly very effective, although I have seen people gain weight after losing it, The medical need for surgery includes a BMI over 40 , or over 35 with an unlying condition or poor quality of life. To start the consideration a person of 170 cm would need to be over 101 KG. No one wants surgery before trying other ways. See a MD
