Is a Lapand Effective?

If you’ve done any research into different surgeries, you will know that lapband is one that is quite popular due to the fact that it doesn’t require staples, isn’t a complex procedure and doesn’t need a lengthy hospital stay afterward. But the question you might be asking is: is this an effective form of treatment for me?

In order to answer that question, you first need to consider your current lifestye and weight loss goals. If, for instance, you want to be able to continue to eat your regular food and those sweets that we all love, if you want to continue to drink cola every day and if you decide that exercise is for suckers, then lapband will not be an effective method for you. In that case it may be better to opt for a harsh cleanse every few months, but this will not ultimately help your in your goal to become healthier.

You first must have a clear vision in mind with respect to your goals and other motivation before you pick up the phone and go through the pre-screening process. The key is to ensure that you have made a solid, unbreakable promise to yourself that you will see this through and do what is necessary to ensure your success. This of course requires quite a bit of discipline and will require some shifting of your diet.

Why am I harping so much on proper diet? Simple, lapband treatments essentially create a pouch that can be inflated or deflated, allowing more or less food to be taken in and digested. In short it won’t matter how your doctor adjusts the belt if you’re diet consists of high fat, high calorie foods.

So, is a lapband effective? It is as long as you commit to healthy choices.
