starry kiss, ah yeah it does. they cut out 85% of your stomach and staple it closed. your stomach produces hormones grehlin and leptin which make you hungry, you lose a lot of that. you eat smaller. to that end, you can stretch your stomach back, you still need to eat smaller meals and watch what you eat. It works. Only procedure know to reverse diabetes. I was borderline pre diabetic. Not anymore. The best thing is you can still eat a small amount of what you liked before and be satisfied. I east a one kids burger at Wendy's or Burger king once in while.
