Are there any restrictions after lap band surgery-temporary and permanent?

Answer 1

Gastric Bypass Surgery/gastrectomy/lapband (all types of weight loss surgery) is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges obesity surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.

I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as obesity surgery is not covered by insurance.They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your lobesity surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

My cousin got her repeat gastric bypass surgery in India through the forerunners healthcare .SHe is more than very happy with the results.She has lost 65lbs in 5 months.She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.hope this helps

Answer 2

I know two women who have had it done - both find that meat is something they no longer can tolerate and of course they are unable to eat as much as they used too or would like too now. One woman had to have two more visits to the hospital with complications, but this is not necessarily prevalent.
She has lost a great deal of weight, but the other one still tends to be soft and over weight since she may not eat as much, but she eats the wrong foods, such as fats and sugars etc. So while it may cause you to eat less you still have watch your diet and exercise! It's not a fail safe procedure in my estimation.
