I'm 28 years old, 5'2 and weigh 165 lbs and have IBS. Is there some kind of gastric procedure I can have? (Photo)

I had family members recommend me the gastric sleeve but I'm aware that i am not a candidate for the gastric sleeve. I wanted to know if there was some kind of similar procedure. I did read about a "mini" gastric but i would like to know more information. Ive been struggling with my weight since high school and have been considering lipo but i want a lifetime change. Im aware that diet and excerise are key to keep weight off, but again, I've been struggling, i need help. Please!
