From a whooping 111 kilos to a mere 78 kilos, Nawab Malik is all determined to use his public image to spread the message of â€slim India, happy India’. Nawab Malik gives the credit of his new found vigor to Dr. Muffazal Lakdawala and his life saving bariatric surgery. The NCP legislator admits that he was lazy before the metabolic surgery, which was the reason for the tremendous weight gain. Nawab Malik has been a State Labour Minister. Before the surgery the politician admits to the fact that he could hardly walk or move. Nawab Malik decided he needed to go for the metabolic surgery as the patient stops feeling hungry after the doctor makes changes in the metabolic system. When Nawab Malik met Dr. Muffazal Lakdawala he had already been diagnosed with high blood pressure, gout, severe joint pains and sleep apnea. All the conditions were due to his obesity and would continue to get worse if he did not lose weight. Bariatric surgery is a surgery conducted for weight loss in dangerously obese patients. The surgery is recommended for people with a body mass index of 40 or more. It is also recommended in cases where obese people have a BMI of 35 but are also faced with serious medical conditions such as diabetes. Long-term studies have shown that the surgery not only helps in long-term weight loss but also has other health benefits as it helps the patient recover from diabetes as well as show an improvement in cardiovascular risk factors. The procedure of the surgery comprises of reducing the size of the stomach with gastric banding which is achieved by implanting a medical device or through gastric bypass surgery. Dr. Muffazal Lakdawala performed the gastrectomy on Nawab Malik wherein the size of the stomach was reduced and his intestines were re-aligned to create a dual effect of restriction as well as malabsorption. Thanks to the life saving surgery by Muffazal Lakdawala, now Nawab Malik does not need any medications for any of his health conditions and fells much lighter. Malik always wanted to be able to walk into a store and buy designer clothes for himself. Almost 16 months after the surgery Malik feels healthy enough to become a brand ambassador for bariatric surgery. The politician is so happy with the surgery that he now recommends it to all those who really need the metabolic surgery to help them lose weight.
