Weight Loss Calculator
Use this calculator to estimate how much weight you might lose with bariatric surgery. By entering your current height and weight, you’ll see your Body Mass Index (BMI), your ideal body weight, and how much excess weight you carry. Based on clinical averages, the calculator will estimate how much of that excess weight you could lose through surgery, giving you a personalized projection of your potential post-surgery weight.

Why this matters: Both surgical and medication-based weight loss are most effective when combined with proper nutrition and regular exercise. Your answers help us show you more realistic, personalized estimates — not just best-case clinical trial numbers.
⚠️ Important Cost Disclaimer:
Surgery cost estimates assume typical insurance coverage as a general estimate.
Your actual out-of-pocket costs may differ significantly based on your specific insurance plan, annual deductible,
copays, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximums, and whether bariatric surgery is a covered benefit under your plan.
GLP-1 medication coverage varies widely by insurer and formulary. We strongly recommend contacting your insurance
provider directly to verify your benefits before making any financial decisions. This tool is for educational
purposes only and does not constitute financial or medical advice.
📊 Calculations Disclaimer:
Surgical weight loss estimates are based on published clinical research including multicenter trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyses,
and long-term outcome studies (1-10 years post-procedure). Key references include data from the American Society for Metabolic
and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS), peer-reviewed journals including Surgery for Obesity and Related Diseases (SOARD), Obesity Surgery,
and JAMA Surgery, and large-scale registry data from the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement
Program (MBSAQIP).
GLP-1 medication estimates are based on controlled clinical trials (STEP, OASIS 1, SURMOUNT-5) showing 14-21% total body weight loss over 64-72 weeks with FDA-approved formulations. Real-world adherence and results are typically lower. Most users discontinue within 12 months. Weight regain is common after discontinuation without sustained lifestyle modification.
Costs shown reflect FDA-approved brand-name medications. Non-FDA-approved compounded versions may be available at lower costs but are not evaluated in the clinical trials referenced above and may have different efficacy and safety profiles.
Individual results will vary significantly based on age, medical history, adherence to treatment protocols, lifestyle changes, and individual metabolism.
