Hello, If your BMI is more than 35 and you have already tried for more than six months to shed weight with help of dietary control and exercises and have failed,then you should consider either a gastric band or a BARIATRIC surgery to loose weight. You should discuss with your doctor regarding the procedure to be adopted. Although both the methods have certain complications and risks,the preference now is to go for BARIATRIC surgery instead of gastric band,however the choice is yours and should be decided after detailed discussion with your doctor. Herbal products to loose weight are as good as useless. Thanks
