Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether combining laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (AKA: lap-band surgery, LAGB) and laparoscopic gastric plication (making tucks in the large curve of the stomach with stitches) to lap-band surgery alone will result in a greater loss of excess weight over time. We anticipate that the average percent of excess body weight loss for study subjects will exceed 29% at 12 months.

Primary Outcome

Excess Body Weight is identified pre-operatively and will be monitored during each post operative visit. The percent of Excess Body Weight Loss (%EWL) will be calculated using as a baseline the % Excess Body Weight identified pre-operatively during the subject's initial consult. The change in %EWL at will be calculated at 6 months and 12 months. The %EWL will then be compared to a similar cohort of patients who had the LAGB alone at the same milestones. It is anticipated that study patients' %EW
