Two years ago one of my friends had lapband surgery. That's different than other weight-loss surgery options because you get a small band positioned around your stomach. The gastric band is inflatable and adjustable. This is in contrast to getting cut, stapled, or having your stomach and/or intestines rerouted.
Since her stomach was smaller, she ate less and felt full faster. It helped to lose the weight on her own. The procedure was done in a day and she wasn't in a lot of pain. Like I said, it's been two years and she's kept the weight off. I would consider that over conventional stomach stapling. That just sounds painful.
