Often, without the proper diet regulation and exercise, it is just a matter of time. Patients who have lost considerable weight through stomach stapling or the LAP BAND are suddenly regaining the unhealthy weight they had previously lost. Obesity surgery does change and save lives, but it is not foolproof and adjustments are sometimes necessary. That's where StomaphyX comes in.
