Ah so he got a Gastric Bypass that really reduces ones weight significantly. It takes a lot of guts to go through an operation like that because it changes the person's life permanently. I read about the aftermaths of Gastric Bypasses they can be awfully troubling and extremely difficult for one to deal with and through. Good luck to him.

Belly band and gastric bypass are two very different things. A lap band (or belly band) is not a permanent operation - it can be easily adjusted and removed. A bypass is permanent and much more drastic a procedure. There's also a greater, more sudden weight loss with a bypass, and less of a possibility for relapse (or weight gain), whereas with lap band, once the band is removed, regaining of weight is more likely.

 

Ira Joe Fisher had a lap band - Al Roker had the bypass. Good luck Joe!
