This study is looking at how well a procedure called Gastric Fundus Mucosal Ablation (GFMA) helps people lose weight. GFMA is a procedure that reduces the stomach's ability to produce ghrelin, a hormone that makes you feel hungry. Researchers want to see the percentage of total body weight loss from the start of the study, measured at 12 months. You might be able to join if you are 18 to 65 years old, have a Body Mass Index (BMI) between 27 and 55 kg/m², and are willing to follow dietary restrictions. This is an observational study, meaning researchers will follow people who have already chosen to have GFMA at a True You Weight Loss clinic in Cary, NC or Atlanta, GA. The study aims to include up to 200 participants.
