Answer
There have been no controlled studies that have shown ear stapling to reduce weight. Certainly you can find plenty of people who swear by it and claim it helped them lose a great deal of weight; however, this is the case with almost every medication, herb, or procedure out there. When these kind of procedures are studied scientifically, instead of just relying on anecdotal reports, it is usually revealed that they do no better than a placebo. The bottom line with losing weight is to reduce the amount of caloric intake (and to make sure it is done in moderation) and increase the amount of exercise. Ear stapling and other procedures can be dangerous if they are done in a non-sterile manner by people who don't know what they are doing, so be careful whom you trust with your body.
