Growing numbers are swapping failed weight-loss regimes for a selection of extreme procedures
The number of patients undergoing major stomach surgery on the NHS has more than doubled in the past three years.
Radical surgical procedures to reduce the size of the stomach, such as gastric bypasses, gastric banding and duodenal switches, have become increasingly popular for patients who fail traditional weight-loss regimes.

Data from NHS hospitals, released by the Department of Health, show that more than 600 gastric banding procedures and related operations were carried out in 2003-04, up from 300 in 2000-01. It is estimated that 4,300 people will have obesity surgery this year, compared with 2,287 in 2004, mostly at private clinics.
