Well, the\nLaparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is here to help! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people do not realize that\nbariatric surgery, particularly the Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy,\nsignificantly alters a patient\u2019s hunger and cravings. During this minimally\ninvasive procedure, we remove a portion of the stomach where the \u201cgut hormones\u201d\nare created. Prior to the procedure, these \u201cgut hormones\u201d go to hypothalamus in\nthe brain and create hunger and cravings. However, after the procedure,\npatients no longer have the same hunger and cravings because a portion of the\nstomach has been removed. The procedure has a powerful impact on getting\nhealthy and long-term weight loss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a comparison, think about when\nyou go grocery shopping on an empty stomach versus when you\u2019re full from a big\nmeal. When you\u2019re hungry in the grocery store, you\u2019ll buy all your unhealthy cravings.\nHowever, if you\u2019re full, you may show more restraint and will not be driven to\nbuy the bad foods. The Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy is similar to going to\nthe grocery store on a full stomach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on the Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy, please visit our website at drtomlavin.com.
