By eating the wrong stuff, or too much.

Obesity is basically about eating too much, too many calories, causing you to become really fat.

Malnutrition is about not getting enough of all the different nutrients needed to keep you healthy.

Someone eating lots, but all of the same stuff, can get obese, and still be missing some of the substances needed to remain healthy.

Why does surgery to reduce obesity sometimes result in malnutrition?

Surgery to reduce obesity, such as bariatric surgery, can lead to malnutrition because it alters the digestive system, reducing the stomach's capacity and bypassing parts of the intestines where nutrient absorption occurs. This can limit the intake of essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals, making it difficult for patients to meet their nutritional needs. Additionally, patients may struggle with dietary changes post-surgery, leading to inadequate nutrient consumption. Regular monitoring and supplementation are often necessary to prevent malnutrition after such procedures.
