Any of several surgical procedures designed to produce substantial weight reduction in obese patients refractory to conventional measures.
Current options for weight loss surgery include the following:
1. Gastric bypass, in which the esophagus is essentially connected directly to the small intestine. This reduces caloric intake at the expense of considerable potential adverse effects.
2.Gastric banding, also referrred to as bariatric surgery, compresses the stomach by means of an external mechanical device. Appetite and capacity are reduced resulting in gradual weight loss.
3.Above-knee amputation produces weight reduction in a biphasic pattern. The immediate post-operative drop is supplemented by a long-term increase in caloric expenditure derived from hopping.

A weight loss center..that sucks. I went on LA weight loss and only lost 20 pounds out of a desired 70. They suck..if you want to lose weight go to weight watchers
Dude..LA weight loss blows. It only works for the first month. You have to be perfect to lose all your desired weight...and no one can do that.
