This is not a quick fix. I have a friend who had bariatric surgery, and another who had the lap band. I would recommend the lap band over the other, based on my observation. In BOTH cases, one must make a concerted effort to permanently change one’s eating habits, and if people could do that, they wouldn’t need invasive surgery to begin with. In both cases, the people who had the surgery did NOT follow their new eating plans, and both suffered greatly as a result. Reovering from stomach surgery is not a picnic. It is still major surgery.
