The epidemic of obesity has increased in recent decades. In 1993 the rate of obesity among adults was 14.9%. By 2013 this had increased to 24.9%.
If dieting and exercise hasn't helped you lose weight and you are having serious health problems as a result, such as type 2 diabetes or heart disease, you could consider gastric band surgery.
Gastric band surgery is a type of weight loss surgery to reduce the size of your stomach so you cannot eat larger meals and you cannot absorb as many calories. This means that you will lose around half of your body weight.
During surgery, an adjustable band is placed on the upper portion of your stomach to create a pouch. The food is then squeezed through the band slowly to the lower part of the stomach. This forces you to eat smaller meals and means that you will take longer to digest them. The adjustable band can also be filled with saline (sterile salt water) to expand the band and further reduce the size of your stomach.
Weight loss surgery offers a permanent solution to the problem of obesity. Dieting is ineffective (you may only lose 10% of your weight) and you could re-gain it all after you stop your diet. You still have to be mindful of your lifestyle, but gastric band surgery helps you lose weight faster and keep the weight off.
If obesity is ruining your life and you're tired of NHS red tape, you should go to the London Obesity Clinic for a consultation with Mr Sanjay Agrawal, a specialist bariatric surgeon who is the only weight loss surgeon in the UK to achieve a 'Bariatric Surgeon of Excellence' certification from the Surgical Review Corporation of the USA.
