A gastric band is a type of weight loss surgery that involves placing an adjustable belt around the top portion of the stomach. The band reduces the size of the stomach pouch and restricts the amount of food consumed during meals. The constriction helps the stomach take longer to empty, giving you a feeling of fullness. It also encourages slower eating, which aids in weight loss.
