neither...both are very dangerous...i suggest a diet and a good exercise program
I have a Lap Band... It helps... I would never get a gastric bypass!! Lap band is reversable with fewer complications.
If you have bypass you get to have your insides rerouted and moved around with many compications with your body excepting vitamans. I had Lap band I have lost 122lb in 1 year If I ever have the need to get all the nutrition I need.. May none of us get that sick.. But with just a needle into my port I can be back to normal in moments. Think about it Lap band is the safest surgery!!! I could never put my body through the bypass...
There is no answer to this question.. it all depends on your current weight, BMI, and condition. Also in the opinion of your doctor. Both are totally different procedures, Lap Band is not so drastic, generally speaking, if you are morbidly obese, the more permanent Gastric Bypass is suggested. But again, it totally depends on your condition.
