Weight loss surgery is becoming a very popular alternative for those who are looking for an alternative to the traditional weight loss techniques that have been around for ages. Years ago, the known method for this was termed the "Gastric Bypass" due to the methods involved with the procedure. However more recently there has been medical advances that are a much better alternative to the more invasive, scarring surgeries of the past. These new methods are known as the "lap band".
What you can imagine is this. You make a trip to your local outpatient surgery office, and within an hour you are ready to start living life again but with a much smaller stomach, and a whole new outlook on life. The time may vary but having seen a family member go through the procedure in the past, I'm fully aware of the benefits gained from getting a weight loss surgery.
A "lapband" accomplishes what many people have been doing for years but without leaving nasty scars. The surgeon enters the patient through what is known as a "keyhole" and allows them to place a rubber band around a portion of the stomach creating a small pouch giving the patient an instantly smaller appetite.
Many patients report the following almost immediately following a weight loss surgery such as a lap band:
1. Massive amounts of weight loss within the first week.
2. Increased energy from weight loss including a highly improved mental attitude.
I think it's safe to say that if you are going to be considering an alternative like these it would be wise to learn new eating habits so that you aren't back in the same position within a years time. Many people have reported "stretching" out their new stomach causing a complete reversal of all added benefits of the procedure.
