Realize Band - Successes
Realize Band for Realizing Your Dream of Permanent Weight Loss
If you're seriously obese, perhaps you've been considering laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) procedures - such as either the Realize Adjustable Band or the LAP-BAND System.
Both the Realize Band and LAP-BAND System work to:
- Provide extreme weight loss
- Reduce (BMI) Body mass index
- Solution to diabetes and hypertension
- Without much risk of complications - very safe
The Realize Band has a long tube-shaped silicone balloon with a super thin thickness of only 0.22" so you'll never even know it's there. What's more, the FDA-approved Realize gastric band helps turn the upper stomach into what is essentially a smaller stomach. The thin and long balloon structure is styled to make the best fit around your stomach. It comes in a one-size-fits-all shape with an endorsement by bariatric surgeons. Add the Realize My Success support tool, an online program to support you with inspiration, tools and resources for maintaining your weight loss effort.
Realize was made for people with serious obesity
Many bariatric surgeons consider gastric surgery to be a last resort, and the Realize Band is a real option. Each patient's body type, size, eating pattern, hereditary or genetic makeup and wellbeing are a factor in the decision to choose Realize over every other option available. The Lap Band System is also a viable alternative for laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding.
"Over the course of the past decade,...
...bariatric surgery has grown in popularity and recently become fairly common as a final attempt for weight loss when all other options have been exhausted."

"Approximately one-third of adults in the United States are obese...
...Weight loss surgery can improve your quality of life."

"I was 160 pounds overweight, and miserable...
...I had stopped working and was running out of money. I had essentially stopped living. The Realize Band and their supportive programs gave me my life back."

"My wife researched bariatric surgery. She knew I'd need a lot of help, motivation and support...
...if I was going to do something like that. I tried the Realize Your Success online support program before I had the surgery. It convinced me I could do what it takes. I went ahead and had the Realize band installed. That was 2 years ago, and I've lost 74 pounds. I have another 60 or 70 to go, but I know I'll get there."

"This is for people who are truly obese. And when you're truly obese - morbidly obese they call it - you can't just try drinking a diet shake once or twice a day or eating special boxed meals...
...That stuff doesn't work once you are this heavy and this engrained in your bad eating habits. I was eating pounds of junk food a day and I was addicted to it. I had given up hope of ever having a normal life, let alone a long life. Then my sister begged me to consider the Realize Band. I love her for it. It has been an amazing journey. I'm three years and 100 pounds thinner now!"
