Overview
Have you found it difficult to achieve lasting weight loss through diet and exercise alone? Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) could be a viable option. LAGB is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that helps with weight loss by creating a smaller stomach pouch. An adjustable band is placed around the upper part of your stomach, restricting the amount of food you can comfortably eat at one time. This feeling of fullness helps you reduce your calorie intake and promotes weight loss.
Here are some benefits of considering LAGB:
- Adjustable: The band can be tightened or loosened over time by your doctor, allowing for personalized weight loss goals. Minimally invasive: The procedure uses small incisions, leading to a shorter recovery time compared to open surgery.
Recovery & Stay
Hospital Stay: Expect to spend one night in the hospital under observation by your care team. Diet: Your recovery will involve a carefully staged dietary progression. You’ll begin with clear liquids for the first 1-2 weeks, followed by a gradual transition to puréed foods, then soft foods, and finally, a return to a regular diet. Your care team will provide a detailed dietary plan to guide you through each stage. Activity: Getting moving is important for recovery. While you may initially feel sore, your care team will encourage you to start walking as soon as possible. This helps to prevent complications and promotes healing.
