If at first you don't succeed..
More than 200,000 thousand Americans undergo weight loss surgery every year, out of those roughly between 5% and 10% are revised. The reason can range from chronic acid reflux to the procedure simply not working. The most common procedure is simply fixing the gastric bypass while revising gastric band is second.
We met two women today who both had gastric band surgeries that for one reason or another they were not happy with so they opted for gastric bypass.
The doctor we interviewed said that while there are severel bariatric options for people none of are guaranteed to work perfectly.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
