Do you know what that weight loss surgery is that has to do with a band??

Yes. It is a form of stomach bypass surgery. It is commonly called Lap Band. (The full out surgery is called RNY for short version of it's name) It is done via surgery and is adjustable, as each person they fit with it is different and it will need to either have liquid added or taken out of it till it is right size for your own body. It is reversible where the RNY is not. But it still cost as much price wise. And you have to follow all the eating guide lines as with the full surgery. Make sure you go to a surgeon who is qualified at this surgery, weather you have the lap band done or rny. If it is a good doctor, they will have you attend a seminar about the surgeries, office visit, psychological evaluation, and whole lots more. Plus have many follow up visits with you and provide a support system for you after you have the surgery.

It's called Gastric Bypass Surgery.

If you want to talk to some people about this, there is a duodenal switch yahoo group.

Yes, it's called a lap-band. It's an adjustable way to restrict the stomach, thus restricting your food intake, causing weight loss. My friend has one.
