REALLY?
WTF?
I have been on my computer all day searching for nutrition topics for this site and started messing around on Google. I started putting “Diet” into the search and the Lap Band surgery kept coming up.
So lets take a look at the Lap Band surgery…
“…A laparoscopic adjustable gastric band, commonly referred to as a lap band, is an inflatable silicone device that is placed around the top portion of the stomach, via laparoscopic surgery, in order to treat obesity. Adjustable gastric band surgery is an example of bariatric surgery designed for obese patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or greater—or between 35–40 in cases of patients with certain comorbidities that are known to improve with weight loss, such as sleep apnea, diabetes, osteoarthritis, GERD, Hypertension (high blood pressure), ormetabolic syndrome, among others…”
So…this means that if you can’t control how much you eat, you have surgery that inserts a device around your stomach and the inflatable pump controls food flow.

Yep! That’s what some people are being talked into having that put in their body. The better solution is The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf. Also check out http://www.robbwolf.com
