The rate of obesity in America is rising.  I have see men and women who are grotesquely obese at work and outside of work.  A lady I used to work with when I was working with the recruiting team was about 220 pounds on a five foot frame.  She is a little short than me and she was round.  I don’t want to be mean, but I told my coworker she need to do something with her weight as she is constantly out of breath.  Two months passed and I did not see this lady at her office.  Her subordinate told me she is on short term disability.  Boy, what happened?  I didn’t ask.

When she came back months later, she was like my size.  The subordinate I talked to told me she went for a lapband surgery.  Lapband surgery is a way to  help extremely overweight individuals to lose their excess weight.  By losing the extra weight, he/she will significantly improve their health.

Journey Lite, located at Tampa – FL, LA - CA, and Houston – TX, dedicated in this surgical procedure.  This procedure will decrease the stomach’s capacity and also limit the amount of food consumed during meal times.

The surgery is done by making tiny openings and inserting special long- shafted instruments to wrap the inflatable band around the upper part of the stomach.  The lapband is tie around the upper stomach that creates a new stomach pouch and the band is locked in a ring around the stomach.  Since the stomach pouch is smaller, it will hold less food and makes the individual feel fuller quickly. 

I was very impressed with her weight loss success and I have also seen another former coworker of mine who had this procedure done.  Those who are morbidly obese should at consider this procedure, however, as a reminder, medical insurance do not cover for this surgical procedure.   Checkout Journey Lite if you want to change your life.
