How fast will I lose the weight after stomach stapling, and is it dangerous?
Most of the weight will be lost in the first six months. Some patients have even been able to loose weight for up to two years after the surgery. This surgery is a tool to help you loose weight, and exercise and diet will help you achieve your ideal body weight. Losing weight this fast is generally not a dangerous procedure if you maintain your vitamin supplements and diet. If you undergo the lap band procedure, your weight loss will be slower but you can achieve a similar result. Your doctor should support you after the operation.
