The band controls the stomach dividing it in the two parts, the size of the stomach regulates the flow of the food from the upper to the lower part of the stomach. When the stomach is smaller, you feel full sooner and have a feeling of satiety so you stop being hungry.
The amount of weight you lose depends both on the LAP BAND and on your motivation and commitment to a new lifestyles, and eating habits. The gastric lap band can help you achieve longer lasting weight loss by:
-Limiting the amount you can eat
-Reducing your appetite
-Slowing digestion
