The Shape of Weight Loss-CIBO Clinic – Lose Weight for Life

The Shape of Weight Loss CIBO Clinic – Lose Weight for Life

For many, year after year, New Year's resolutions include the desire for an improved appearance and topping the list is weight loss.

By now those resolutions are fading from the minds of most. How to make that resolution a reality – you need a source for help – ongoing help.

The risks of being overweight and the wish to achieve better health and an improved appearance can drive depression at any time of the year, leaving you immobilized. The daunting journey to achieve weight loss can be overwhelming; especially after endless failed attempts at diet routines.

Good information can help you make the choice for personal change. You also need on-going support to strengthen determination, plus, you need to be able to share and communicate openly with your support team.

A feature on look good options is the CIBO Clinic - the Canadian Institute of Bariatric Options. Their slogan is meaningful "Lose Weight for Life".

The CIBO support team is unmatched……they don't just claim to have experience…they do. Tom Saridis, Founder & CEO of The Canadian Institute of Bariatric Options, CIBO Clinic, has experienced weight-loss surgery himself. Tom underwent adjustable gastric lap-banding weight loss surgery in 2006 and has lost and maintained a 280 lb weight loss. Tom describes his experience as, "I realized that having the band put in wasn't a cure for my obesity – nothing is – but it was a great tool for helping me change the way I eat. I worked hard to make the changes the band required."

Tom formed CIBO Clinic from his own weight loss journey and the feelings of "What happens now?"



Today, five years later and 280 lbs. lighter Tom is committed to helping others achieve the same weight loss success…and…enjoy a better quality of life. Tom maintains, "Anyone who has ever struggled with their weight like I have knows losing it is a lot more complicated than just cutting back on food and getting some exercise. It's about changing the way you eat, the way you think – and the way you live your life. I couldn't have made those changes without help."

The health risks of obesity such as type 2 diabetes or hypertension are greater than the risks of gastric banding surgery because severe obesity is a chronic frequently progressive, life threatening disease with many known health risks.

In most cases a potential candidate for lap-band surgery would have to be at least fifty pounds above their ideal body weight or have a body mass index of thirty-five or as low as thirty with pre-existing health conditions.

The Canadian Medical Association Journal recommends bariatric or weight loss surgery as an acceptable option for people for whom all other conventional weight loss methods have failed.

The CIBO Clinic in Toronto (Canadian Institute of Bariatric Options) stresses a lifetime of changes; "Eating habits can change, the band is a great tool to help you make that change", explains Tom "These days, life has become about quality, not quantity,"
When Tom states, "I know what you mean" it is not a put-off comment he actually does know and can relate to you.
