One thought on “How Much Weight Can You Lose With Lap-Band Surgery?”
Arti says:
The average weight loss for Lap-Band patients, in total, is 50% of excess weight. In the early 21st century, the Lap-Band procedure became a very popular choice for patients looking to lose large amounts of excess weight despite past failures with diet and exercise. It became a competitor to the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and the gastric sleeve procedures, quickly garnering support due to its lower cost and high effectiveness. To calculate excess weight, take your current weight and subtract your ideal weight (or weight at a healthy BMI).
