Weight loss can be a challenging journey for all of us, especially if we find ourselves with little time to really focus on it. From being a busy mum to a busy worker, life simply has a way of getting in the way of making sure we are as healthy as we can be. Gastric balloons are a fantastic weight loss device, designed to help patients take a step back from hunger by repressing the hunger hormone ghrelin. By doing this, not only do patients lose weight whilst they have the balloon placed but are in a position to work at permanently changing lifestyle choices and habits for long-term success.

Jennifer, from Chelmsford, lost 18kg with a gastric balloon procedure and said the following about her experience with Allure Weightloss:

‘I had two balloons within 16 months and lost a total of 2 st 12 lbs (40 pounds). I would recommend the balloon to anyone and would say the most important thing is to make sure you work with the balloon and use it as a tool for achieving your goals. You still have to do all the work and make the right choices. This ensures that your weight loss is sustainable as well. One reason I chose the balloon was to maintain a healthy weight because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. The balloon provided me with a great side effect of lessening my pain and inflammation almost immediately. I’m not sure if this effect was only from the weight loss, but it certainly has allowed me to achieve a healthy weight which greatly benefits my condition.’
