Hypnotism: Fundamental Principles and Practice for Beginners (A Hypnotherapists Guide to Hypnotising in Person and Online)

Book excerpt: The gastric band operation is a surgical procedure that helps the patient lose weight by reducing the stomach size, thereby limiting the amount of food needed to tell the brain that the body is full.
